Mission

Offering capacity building, collaborative forums and the research products that local leaders need to improve their communities.

What We Do

Our program participants - mentors, peers and ambassadors - will work together with local leaders in Nigeria to implement improvement action plans either in the United States or in Nigeria.

Starting in 2018 with our affiliate organization in Nigeria, Strategy and Innovation for Development Initiative (SI4DEV), TSDI is supporting an inaugural class of 50 partners. These partners include individual volunteers, small enterprises, and local nonprofit organizations who aim to create social change and sustainable development in their communities.

We offer leadership training that has been reviewed and approved by the partners themselves. Partners receive mentorship, peers, and collaboration through social media groups made up of like-minded leaders.

The partners have six months of capacity development, including experiential learning and skills transfer, and we work with these partners to establish their suitability and alignment of their goals with TSDI objectives.
