DIS is recognized as one of the 100 best NGOs in Brazil, according to Época Magazine and the Doar Institute.

The IDIS operates in two ways: by developing proactive initiatives and given technical support demand from corporations, foundations, institutes and individuals. Both initiatives and technical support depend on the establishment of partnerships. Joint learning, transparency and co-responsibility are values that permeate these partnerships.

IDIS ' commitment to social development is expressed through the increased impact of private social investment. Acting as a civil society organization legitimizes the mission of IDIS because it depends on the support of diverse stakeholders to exist.

Headquartered in São Paulo, IDIS has a qualified and experienced technical team.
