Key Issues

Partnerships

IIED is part of a global community sharing knowledge and best practice with partners round the globe, many in the developing world. Some are individuals working in other NGOs, government, academia, indigenous people’s groups, international organizations and multilateral agencies such as the UN.

Strategic Planning

IIED's work on Strategies, Planning and Assessment (SPA) is concerned with integrated policy-making, planning and decision-taking for sustainable development at national to local levels, the links and relations between them, and the assessment and tools which support and enable these processes

Environmental Law

Often, the people most vulnerable to the impacts of environmental degradation are the least equipped to shape the necessary solutions. We help redress the balance by sharing ways to use law to protect the environment with people and communities in developing countries.
