Committees

For IDA, committees serve as both governance bodies and collaborative fora where members can address a wide range of operational, strategic, and thematic areas.
These committees will facilitate knowledge sharing, networking, and collaborative initiatives, making them valuable for both IDA and its members.
IDA will have two types of committees: disease area-specific committees and cross-cutting committees. These committees will help guide IDA’s work in key focus areas:
