From research to impact: Ten examples of how IISD is making a difference

The International Institute for Sustainable Development takes the impact of its work seriously. With a foundation in empirical research, we translate that knowledge into practical, on-the-ground assistance to communities, cities and countries seeking to improve well-being for present and future generations.

Our 120 staff members and associates have worked in over 70 countries, bringing multi-disciplinary backgrounds in finance, economics, biology, engineering, statistics, law and communications. Working alongside policy-makers, businesses and civil society organizations, we tackle the drivers of unsustainable development.
