Welcome to the Sydney Development Circle.

The Sydney Development Circle (SDC) is a mentoring and networking group open to anyone interested in international aid and community development at the local, regional and global levels.

SDC represents people of all ages, backgrounds and experience, across diverse development sectors. There are no membership dues. A volunteer steering committee coordinates events, and members are invited to recommend speakers and topics.

Join us on Monday February 6, 2012 for our first topic of the new year - 'Facilitating collaborative change'.  Our special guest speaker will be Greg Jenkins the coordinator of the Sydney Facilitators Network.

Please register on http://sdc.groupsite.com in order to receive event notices and to share development sector resources and other topical events with peers.

Seminars are scheduled monthly at the UTS Building 10, 235 Jones Street, Ultimo (see the  calendar and map below). Room location details are announced each month.

Feel free to contact Lucy Hobgood-Brown - 0417 272 101; or  Kiran Hutchinson 0414 905 290.

What We Do?

The Sydney Development Circle aims to provide a forum for sharing ideas and resources as well as discussing topical issues with others.

Meetings also give members and guests the opportunity to share information about the organisation they work for and their areas of experience, interest and passion in the field of development both in and out of Australia.

Special interest groups have begun to emerge, and may meet independently at any time, reporting back to the SDC meetings throughout the year.

This site is a meeting place that provides members of Sydney Development Circle with a shared calendar , discussion forums , member profiles , photo gallery , file storage and more.

We encourage you to upload your photo, complete your profile and participate!
