ND Initiative for Global Development
We are excited to announce our participation in Notre Dame Day, when the global Notre Dame family will come together to celebrate what each of us loves most about the University. The University of Notre Dame Initiative for Global Development (NDIGD) is proud to be an integral part of the new Keough School of Global Affairs, the first new school or college at Notre Dame in nearly a century. NDIGD promotes human development and dignity among people worldwide through applied innovations, impact evaluation, education, and training that help build just and equitable societies. It supports the Keough School by combining the existing world-class teaching and research faculty of the University with a dedicated staff of experienced international development professionals, administrators, and researchers.
Why are donations necessary?
We are immensely grateful for the support that we receive through private donations, which support many NDIGD projects. Giving to NDIGD is an opportunity to give to people in extreme poverty, evaluate the impact of your gift, and give to Notre Dame—all at the same time. NDIGD projects often go beyond published results, and have extended to impactful, tangible results such as solar microgrids providing energy, wells providing water, and newly built schools providing education to the next generation. Learn more about the impact we have created and continue to create around the world at ndigd.nd.edu/projects. Your support helps us work toward realizing the vision of Rev. Edward Sorin, C.S.C., to make Notre Dame “one of the most powerful means for doing good in this country.”
