Canadian International Development Research Council
- Canadian Partners Program
- info for Can. researchers IDRC's mandate, status, and objectives are specific and different from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). While both institutions work toward sustainable and equitable development, CIDA focuses on more practical applications, such as private-sector development and meeting basic human needs for safe water, education, and the like. As the federal government department that administers most of Canada's Official Development Assistance program, CIDA also provides humanitarian assistance. IDRC, on the other hand, directs support primarily to researchers and research institutions in the South. In this way, developing countries generate the tools and expertise they need to develop their own solutions to the problems they face.
