“ICMP is the only specialized international organization that addresses the issue of missing persons in all its facets through the use of scientific and law based mechanisms.

Ambassador Tomas Szunyog. “We believe that assisting States in resolving missing persons cases, following hostilities, is critical to future peace and stability in the region,” he added.
“I would like to thank the Czech Republic and Ambassador Szunyog personally for the invaluable support they have provided to ICMP, both directly and through contributions via the European Union. The Czech support has greatly contributed to ICMP’s ability to assist the governments in the region to locate and identify this unprecedented number of missing persons“, said ICMP Director-General Kathryne Bomberger.
ICMP assists governments in accounting for missing persons from war, human rights abuses, disasters, human trafficking, organized crime and other causes. It has programs in Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and it has helped countries in Southeast Asia and North America. ICMP is funded through voluntary grants, donations, and contributions from participating governments.[:bs]
