Collaboration of German-Speaking Countries

There is close collaboration between DIMDI and Austria and Switzerland. E.g. the German language edition of ICD-10 was published as a common edition of these three countries agreed upon in several editorial meetings. Representatives of the three countries meet annually to exchange experiences and to plan further collaboration.
