Mission & Vision

Our mission at DII is to facilitate economic and social empowerment by providing innovative workforce development programs, comprehensive support for refugees and migrants, tailored assistance to SMEs and entrepreneurs, and impactful education initiatives. We aim to create lasting positive change in communities around the world through our dedicated efforts and strategic partnerships.

At DII, we envision a world where every individual has the opportunity to fulfill their potential, where businesses thrive and communities prosper, and where education is a pathway to empowerment and advancement. Through our work, we strive to build a more inclusive, resilient, and prosperous future for all.

To achieve this mission, we must be a great place to work and we must be a successful business. We need to attract and retain extraordinary talent, and provide our team with professional opportunity, fair salary and benefits, and a healthy work-life balance. We also must perform as a business so that we can meet our obligations, invest in our future, and reward our employee owners. The more successful we are as a business, the greater development impact we can have.

In everything we do, we live by four core values:

  • Integrity: we have an uncompromising commitment to civility and ethical behavior. We play by the rules and do the right thing.
  • Responsibility: we are accountable to our clients, our colleagues, and the communities where we work. If we fall short, we own up, fix the problem, and get it right the next time.
  • Excellence: we demand of ourselves the highest technical and professional standards. We celebrate innovation, learning, and service. We have an unwavering desire to “stretch,” as individuals and as an organization.
  • Global Citizenship: we are a global company with a global outlook. We depend on our diversity and inclusiveness, respect the cultures in which we work, and treat everyone, everywhere with professionalism and dignity. We thrive on collaboration with our partners around the world, and share with them the hope that our work will leave the world a better place.
