Founded in 1995, pioneer of the digital inclusion movement in Latin America, CDI is one of the leading social enterprises in the world with a unique socio-educational approach.

Our mission is to transform lives and strengthen low-income communities by empowering people with information and communication technology. We use technology as a medium to fight poverty, stimulate entrepreneurship and create a new generation of changemakers.

Today, we are a network of 803 self-managed and self-sustaining CDI Community Centers throughout Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Jordan and UK – monitored and coordinated by our 33 regional offices. In addition to low-income communities, our schools are also present in indigenous communities, psychiatric clinics, hospitals for mentally and physically disabled, as well as youth & adult detention facilities.

CDI is an international NGO headquartered in Rio de Janeiro and has trained more than 1.3 million people in 15 years.
