Approach

DII takes a holistic and collaborative approach to development, working closely with stakeholders to identify needs, design tailored solutions, and implement impactful programs. Our team of experts brings together diverse skills and experiences to address complex challenges and drive positive change on local, national, and global scales.

Ethics, integrity, and compliance are fundamental DII values at the core of how DII interacts with clients, partners, employees, and vendors across the globe. These values are embodied in DII’s Ethics, Integrity, and Safeguarding Program, which is affirmed by DII’s Board and applied across the entire company and all entities in which DII has an ownership position.

DII’s Chief Ethics and Integrity Officer oversees the Ethics, Compliance, and Safeguarding program, promotes a culture of compliance through training and regular communication on important topics, and works with DII management to establish, monitor, and enforce standards, policies, and procedures to identify and prevent illegal, unethical, or improper conduct.

At DII, we take ethics seriously. Accomplishing development results in challenging circumstances while complying with funding partner and host nation laws and policies requires disciplined performance. DII professionals recognize that meeting these high standards will model effective and compliant management to their beneficiaries and establish trusting relationships essential to successful development.
