Vision Statement

The Society for International Development undertakes initiatives that foster stimulating and topical discussions and debates on international development issues of interest to Canadians. It does this through the presentation of leading edge research and practice, the dissemination of lessons learned and the diffusion of knowledge to government, business and society. In doing so, the Society engages with academics, professional institutes and pertinent government and private organizations with an interest in international development.
