IDD designs fresh approaches and innovative tools to improve teaching and learning worldwide for both in- and out-of-school populations of all ages. Our work combines local resources and expertise with the latest research to achieve concrete results.
We partner with governments and local communities, international donors, churches, and international corporations. But it is the learners who are at the center of our programs. From rural Haiti to urban Indonesia, our projects promote listening, action, reflection, group interaction and even play. We work at the pre-school, primary, and secondary levels; with adults and out-of-school learners; and with local and national governments. We build local, human capacity, ensuring that our partners own and can sustain the programs well beyond the life of any one project.
Whether we are developing ESL radio lessons for primary school children in remote Pakistani villages, producing unbiased news programming for conflict-torn South Sudan, writing an HIV/AIDS curriculum in Zambia, or empowering young entrepreneurs in Macedonia, EDC is committed to in-country partnerships, deep respect for local knowledge and culture, and collaborative decision-making.
