Sustainable Development Communications Network (SDCN)
The Sustainable Development Communications Network (SDCN) is a group of leading civil society organizations seeking to accelerate the implementation of sustainable development through broader, integrated information and communications about what we know. The network focuses its efforts on integrating Internet communications into broader communication strategies. Our understanding of communications includes:

• internal communications necessary for international virtual project teams within civil society organizations (CSOs) to work together on sustainable development research; and

• external communications necessary for CSOs to communicate their perspectives with government and business decision-makers so as to engage these other sectors in sustainable development solutions.
