About

Our Mission

The Arab Development Initiative (ADI) is a youth driven initiative that focuses on development in the Arab world. Its mission is to encourage highly skilled and educated Arab youth to direct their efforts towards development in the region. It will act as an intermediary between youth and organizations working for the development of the region. The ADI seeks to do this by:
1) enlisting the expertise of renowned leaders, thinkers, and scholars to identify and evaluate the most pressing obstacles to development in the Arab world
2) creating opportunities for students to engage in regional development efforts through conferences, networking events, workshops, and projects
3) building a global network of youth dedicated to development efforts in the Arab world and beyond
The ADI meets the Arab world’s need for greater development by creating a forum where Arab youth can discuss, collaborate, and work towards a better future.
The ADI is a non-profit organization affiliated with the Arab Students Association of McGill University and falls under the purview of the Student Society of McGill University. It is not affiliated with any political group, ideology, or religion.
