On February 4, 2009, GAP made a presentation to the Federation of International Civil Servants’ Associations (FICSA) – a federated group of 29 staff associations/unions from organizations belonging to the United Nations common system. GAP’s presentation, which was incorporated into the 62nd session of the FICSA Council, focused on promoting accountability, witness protection, alternative dispute resolution and justice at intergovernmental organizations.
