We foster collaboration and inspire innovation and creative approaches to the enormous challenges of today’s world.
Our DNA
Robert Schuman, one of the fathers of European unity, said in his speech delivered on 9 May 1950:
“Europe will not be made all at once, or according to a single plan. It will be built through concrete achievements which first create a de facto solidarity.”
The International Institute for Strategic Development was founded on the basis of this idea, with the aim of working for a better future.
years of experience in strategic development, knowledge dissemination, and sustainable growth initiatives
Our Mission
Our mission is to disseminate expertise in the field of European funds by organising training courses that are full of substantive knowledge, practical examples, and passion for discovery, all of which are essential for individual and institutional development. We work to enable public authorities to effectively implement different types of development measures, thus benefiting citizens and supporting the structural development of countries.
The creation of the International Institute for Strategic Development is rooted in the vision of cooperation that underpins the formation of the European Union. That is why we encourage dialogue and the exchange of experiences and practices that provide invaluable knowledge. Our training courses are led by practitioners who are the best in their fields — people who know the presented issues in detail from their own experience.
At the International Institute for Strategic Development, we seek not only to understand the future but also to work with you to develop the best solutions and answers to the realities and challenges faced by Europe in the third decade of the 21st century. Join us on a journey and discover now what inevitably awaits us over the horizon.
