ICIC 2025

The International Conference of Information Commissioners (ICIC) is a worldwide annual forum that connects Information Commissioners, Ombudspersons and other bodies in charge of overseeing the implementation of Access to Public Information legislation. Its objective is to foster the protection and the promotion of access to public information as a fundamental pillar to social, economic and democratic governance.

The ICIC's mission is to share knowledge and best practices, to build capacity, to help identify what is needed for global progress and to act as a collective voice in international fora with a view to improving people's right to public information and their ability to hold to account bodies that provide public functions.

In 2025, the event will focus on the importance of a low-threshold access to environmental information, with a particular emphasis on digital solutions. The event will highlight the important role of civil society and media in enhancing a broad access to environmental data and creating more awareness for environmental issues.
