Speaking at the recent UNICEF Board meeting, ICCIDD chairman Jerry Burrow reminded the Board that "UNICEF has invested heavily in salt iodization with good results" and urged the UNICEF Board to extend and expand its efforts.

Specifically, he urged UNICEF country offices to take the lead in mobilizing national coalitions, to support effective iodine monitoring programs and to sustain its leadership of the Global Network for the Sustained Elimination of Iodine Deficiency.

ICCIDD is a founding member of The Network.
