| The International Comparison Program Global Office, located at the World Bank Headquarters in Washington D.C., coordinates the overall program in the five regions under its remit: Africa, Asia, the Commonwealth of Independent States, Latin America and the Caribbean. The Global Office liaises closely with the OECD and Eurostat who manage the program in their respective member states. A Regional Implementing Agency in each of the five ICP regions has assigned a Regional Coordinator to oversee the preparations for and the execution of the ICP in their region’s countries. The Regional Coordinator works closely with the National Implementing Agency and Coordinator in each country to ensure consistency of methods, and comparability and representivity of items priced. Each region has set up its own ICP website and links to these, together with the main contact point, are shown below: Africa Contact: Mr. Michel Mouyelo-Katoula, email M.Mouyelo-Katoula@Afdb.org African Development Bank Asia and Pacific Website: www.adb.org/statistics/icp/icp.
