The challenges of global poverty are daunting, and they require creative and lasting solutions. To find solutions and change as many lives as possible, global development organizations must combine forces, share resources, and collaborate. Help us transform global development for greater impact.
"The Posner Center is precious for Denver's global development community. I find great value working here every day, being exposed to new ideas in a very collaborative environment. You have a great thing going here!" - Chris Bleers, Engineers Without Borders USA
"Learning from partners who are trying to do very similar things to us but have completely different methods is so great, and especially important is having training and collaboration events which 'force' us to get out of our work mode and talk to each other!" - Joshua Knight, Global Hope Network International
"Being at the Posner Center has greatly expanded our network and employee wellness through access to a wide range of events, professional development trainings, and opportunities for collaboration. The biggest impact though has just been the day-to-day environmental affect on our staff members as the positive and innovative energy in the Center is contagious." - Hannah Bick, MAIA
The Posner Center for International Development catalyzes the global development community, at home and abroad, to collaborate for greater impact.
Our network of nearly 200 organizations works with communities in over 100 countries around the world across all sectors of development, confronting the barriers to securing a more prosperous and equitable life for all.
In 2011, iDE, a Denver-based group that increases incomes for more
than 20 million rural farmers in Asia, Africa, and Latin America,
initiated an ambitious plan to finance and develop a consortium to
inhabit the world's first shared space for international development.
In 2012, after a collaborative design and planning process with the
Denver Housing Authority, Engineers Without Borders USA, Bridges
to Prosperity, Nokero, Denver Urban Gardens, iDE and many dedicated
partner organizations, more than two dozen Tenant organizations
were recruited, many with a market-based approach to solving
global challenges. iDE served as the founder and landlord until late
2013, when the Posner Center for International Development was
"spun off" from iDE as an independent nonprofit organization. The
Posner Center is named in recognition of the generosity of Joanne
Posner-Mayer, and in honor of her parents, Jerry and Hanna Posner.
