CIDS Foundation
Center of Innovation for Sustainable Development (CIDS)
ARPA's CIDS Foundation was born out of the need to provide concrete solutions to basic social problems within the framework of the Sustainable Development Goals in an efficient way, using simple and innovative technology. It uses ARPA's technology and experience to implement and disseminate sustainable techniques at the service of people.
At CIDS, our motto is “If it's not sustainable, it's not development”, which is why we work directly on 5 of the Sustainable Development Goals.
