Human Resources Policy

IFAD exists in a rapidly changing political, economic, social and technological environment. It needs to adapt to diverse and changing requirements by continuously developing organizational capability, improving performance by empowering staff, stimulating their creativity, rewarding risks and innovation and investing in continuous improvement through knowledge sharing and training.

The Human Resources Policy provides guiding principles of the various human resources management processes, in accordance with which the President shall manage the employees of IFAD. The policy is part of its framework to transform IFAD into a 21st century organization – an organization in which the principles of openness, transparency and accountability are imbedded in the culture of IFAD and where performance is driven by values.
