DCED Guidance

The DCED is a forum where member agencies and others can come together to share experiences and to formulate a common understanding of good practice. This understanding is based particularly on empirical experience in the field: what has worked, and what has not.

Often, the experiences are harvested through a series of thematic conferences, featuring a wide range of peer-reviewed Papers, research and other evidence. During each conference, the materials are reviewed and discussed, leading to a shared agreement about what constitutes good practice.

Those inputs are all available for download via the Knowledge about PSD pages, on the DCED websites. The side bar on this page provides the current list of thematic DCED guidance, generally arising from this work, and now available for download in various languages.
