The DPC provide regular fora to exchange good practice, discuss challenges faced and raise gaps in capability for future development. DPC Special Interest Groups (previously called Working Groups) are ongoing meetings for the discussion of sectoral, content focused or functional themes. DPC Task Forces are established with a specific goal in mind and will close when that goal has been addressed.
