ICMP is an intergovernmental organization that helps governments and others to address the issue of missing persons from conflict, human rights abuses, disasters, organized crime, irregular migration, and other causes. It helps governments to build rule-of-law institutions that successfully and impartially account for missing persons.

ICMP is known for its pioneering use of modern DNA techniques to identify more than 20,000 people who have gone missing globally. ICMP has developed an Integrated Data Management System (iDMS) to record and share information on all aspects of the missing persons process. ICMP works with civil society organizations, particularly associations of families of the missing, enabling them to become active participants in the process of accounting for their loved ones and to access their right to truth, justice, and reparations.

Today, ICMP has programs in the Western Balkans, Syria/MENA, Iraq, Ukraine, the South Caucasus, and Vietnam.
