WHO WE ARE
SSD International is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization established by a consortium of research scholars and intellectuals from leading academic institutions, including Columbia University, the University of Chicago, and Harvard University. The organization is dedicated to advancing education, social justice, and equitable opportunity on a global scale. We convene a transnational network of students, professionals, and policymakers to translate scholarly insight into substantive social change, with a principled focus on addressing systemic inequities and empowering marginalized communities. Our work embodies a sustained commitment to praxis uniting rigorous analysis with strategic action to cultivate a more just world. We invite collaboration in this ongoing endeavor to shape inclusive societies and expand the frontiers of social equity.
