CDA Collaborative Learning Projects Inc

A future where communities and nations demonstrate resilience, drive their own development, and resolve conflicts without resorting to armed violence.

Supporting the application of lessons from collaborative learning processes to improve effective and accountable engagements that result in significant, positive, lasting change for people and societies.

CDA is widely recognized for its established expertise in the professional fields of Accountability and Feedback Loops, Conflict Sensitivity/Do No Harm, Peacebuilding Effectiveness, and Responsible Business.

Our expertise is rooted in evidence-based collaborative learning projects, and in the extensive advisory work, that we have completed and continue to perform. Throughout the years we have worked in more than seventy conflict-affected and fragile contexts!

For almost twenty years, CDA has provided services in relation to accountability and feedback loops, conflict sensitivity/Do No Harm, peacebuilding effectiveness, and responsible business. We have worked in more than 70 conflict-affected and fragile contexts, and support development, humanitarian, and peacebuilding agencies, as well as private sector companies, to improve the impacts of their operations. Our services, guidance, and tools are grounded in field experience, enable organizations to learn with and from each other, are oriented towards practical application, are broadly relevant across many contexts

CDA’s expertise on effective engagement in complex situations is more relevant today than ever. Addressing the cascade of crisis, from Syria and South Sudan, to Yemen and Myanmar, along with increased global fragility and rapidly evolving forms of political violence, requires the context-specific and practical tools CDA has honed over two decades.
