Abstract

The ICD-11 is being developed for publication in 2015, while another important diagnostic classification system, the DSM-5, is being finalized and prepared for publication in 2013. This paper provided an overview of the revision process and also the current status of the drafts of both systems. In addition, the Global Clinical Practice Network, an online network created by the WHO for clinicians throughout the world to participate in the revision efforts for the ICD-11 by reviewing the proposals, providing feedback on them, and participating in field trials, is introduced.
