International Institute for Environment and Development

The International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) is an independent research organisation that aims to deliver positive change on a global scale.

We deliver original, rigorous research that helps to drive progress, support sustainable development and protect the environment. We identify local solutions that can work at scale and introduce these to global forums.

We are strategic collaborators, innovators, knowledge brokers and agents of change. Our strategy outlines how we aim to grow in scope, reach and reputation.

IIED brings together more than 120 people from diverse backgrounds and countries to deliver high quality research, analysis and impact. Our work is guided by our leadership team, research fellows and trustees.

Working through four research groups, we develop cross-cutting solutions that deliver impact on many levels.
