World Learning - International Development Programs

World Learning - International Development Programs (WL-IDP) is part of World Learning, an international non-governmental organization (INGO) founded in 1932 in the United States. Based in Washington, DC, USA, World Learning International Development Programs focus on a single purpose: to bridge the gap between the desire for human development and the ability to achieve that goal. WL-IDP designs and carries out technical assistance programs in more than 50 countries throughout the world, in the fields of education and training as well as civil society and institutional capacity building, and on behalf of the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and the World Bank mostly. In Europe & Eurasia, WL-IDP activities have focused on improving the performance of individuals or groups via the transfer of new skills & knowledge. Recently, however, WL-IDP has been focusing on improving the performance of key institutions too.
