Who visits the OECD?
The Public Affairs Division organises group visits to the OECD Headquarters in Paris for business leaders, trade union representatives, parliamentarians, academics, journalists, university students and other groups, upon request. The OECD welcomes around 3000 visitors each year. Student groups are accepted only from upper university levels, and students must have a good knowledge of one of the OECD areas of activity. We are unable to organise individual visits.
What is a typical visit?
Visits vary in time limit, number of participants and type of visit. However, they can usually accommodate a minimum of 10, and up to 100 participants, depending on room availability. A typical visit lasts from 2 to 3 hours and is conducted in one of the two official languages of the OECD, French or English. It begins with an introduction to the OECD. Then, one or several members of the Secretariat brief the visitors on the particular topics of interest to them. A member of the relevant Delegation to the OECD is usually involved in the visit. Each presentation lasts about 45 minutes (including a question and answer period). Participants receive documentation and other relevant background information on the OECD.
Every visit is unique and is organised to suit the needs and interests of the particular group. The Visits Programme tries to provide the most appropriate speakers, drawn from the many facets of OECD work -- economics, education, science, environment, governance, employment, technology, to mention only a few.
How to organise a visit?
Due to limited availability of meeting rooms, it is important to send in requests for visits at least two months before the desired date of the visit.
Requests should include the following information: preferred date and time of visit to the OECD; number of participants and their names; topics of interest; mention of previous visits; special requests.
Visits to the OECD are free of charge.

Most OECD members are high-income economies with a high Human Development Index (HDI) and are regarded as developed countries.
