When you donate to IISD you are providing essential financial resources so we can continue doing the necessary independent, integrative, high-quality policy research, reporting and communications for achieving sustainable development.

Our donors support a wide range of research on urgent policy issues facing the world, provide the means to hire the best minds to work on complicated problems and give us the opportunity to seek innovative solutions. A recent example of our innovative approach is IISD's initiative to become the operator of the world's foremost freshwater ecosystem science research centre, Canada's Experimental Lakes Area. Online donations are administered through CanadaHelps.org. Gifts may be for current use or multi-year support.

IISD is fully independent of any one country or source of funding, and is supported by generous financial contributions from governments, individuals, foundations, corporations and multilateral organizations across the globe that share our commitment to independent, high-quality, and high-impact public policy research, analysis and communications for achieving sustainable development.
