New IFAC Website Coming Soon
We are currently in the process of redesigning the IFAC website to better suit your needs. The new site will feature a clean and modern design, a more intuitive architecture and navigation, expanded content, and topical and timely issues and insights. Content will be organized around issues and outputs, and include cross-referencing and tagging, so it will be easier to find the information you're looking for, as well as related resources.
We're looking forward to launching the site later in 2011, and to hearing your feedback.
