“CRS has been connected to key USG officials, such as the Inspector General of USAID and Mission Directors, thanks to SID-W’s events. These opportunities for engagement are valuable to the agency and are centered around important topics that impacts our day-to-day work and helps tackle global issues.”

"SID-W has a really diverse membership base. As a result, they're able to support events that vary in terms of both their functional focus and the career level of the audience. This means there is always something going on that interests me and adds value to my career." 

"SID-W is the only entity in Washington that regularly brings together the full spectrum of the international development community: from INGOs, to international development companies, other corporates active in our space, embassies, the USG and other bilateral donor countries.  The result are SID-W events that produce particularly rich discourse - unparalleled in other forums. SID-W is essential to our community."
