    Goals / Remit

    CIDSE is an international alliance of development agencies working together for global justice. 18 lay-led catholic development organisations from Europe & North America, inspired by shared Christian values, come together under the CIDSE umbrella to promote global justice and solidarity. Central to CIDSE’s policy formulation and advocacy is its member organisations’ work with local partner organisations in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Contributing to the fight against poverty and inequality, as well as bringing about sustainable development and well-being by challenging global structural injustices are key elements of CIDSE’s mission, which we attempt to achieve through joint advocacy, campaigning and development cooperation work. Our current priority issues are food & agriculture and land rights; climate justice & energy; sustainable consumption and production; business & human rights and gender equality.
    CIDSE’s goals could be summarised in two big and interconnected areas (...)

    Main EU files targeted

    The main EU policies followed by CIDSE work relate to food security, energy and climate change, business and human rights (e.g. the EU legislative process on Human Rights Due diligence), Agenda 2030.

    Communication activities

    CIDSE was a major actor in the 2019 European campaign against the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) mechanism which gathered 847,000 signatures.

    In November 2019, CIDSE was invited to present the proceedings from the UN Binding Treaty negotiations on business and Human Rights in Geneva at a meeting of the Subcommittee on Human Rights of the European Parliament.

    Other activities

    CIDSE’s current strategic framework (2016-2021) runs until 2021. (see here http://www.cidse.org/articles/rethinking-development/new-strategic-framework-the-cidse-network-embarks-on-a-new-adventure.html).
    A mid-term review of the CIDSE strategic framework was carried out during the first half of 2019 which reconfirmed CIDSE’s overall strategy and objectives.

    A Framework Partnership Agreement was signed with the European Commission – Directorate General for International Cooperation and Development (DG-DEVCO) in November 2018. The contract officially started on 1st January 2019 and will cover a period of 54 months.

    CIDSE is also a 'Global CSO" member of the European Commission Policy Forum on Development, a space for civil society related to EU development cooperation.
