International Development

Insight provides services for international development.

The goals for international development are well-captured by the Sustainable Development Goals. These were originally formulated in 2015 by the United Nations General Assembly as a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future. These Goals are listed later on this page.

Insight provides consulting and training for international development services. Insight is a Company Partner of the Research Society in Australia, and Insight CEO, Dr Mark Griffin, is certified as a Qualified Professional Researcher with the society.
