The purpose of the alliance is to align the APCO organizations to promote the sharing of information, experiences, ideas and best practices. To address the specific needs of each location, the independent APCO organizations are currently structured by geography. However, The Global Alliance for Cooperation and Development will build common platforms for progress across geographic borders. In addition, the alliance will encourage the development of organizations that share the common purpose and espouse the same values and goals in other nations of the world.
"The international APCO family has been working towards this goal for a long time and we are extremely excited to be moving forward with the alliance," APCO International President Wanda McCarley said. "We look forward to the continued work with our international partners and to enhancing this work through the alliance."
