Join a Bond group to maximise expertise and share best practice with other professionals in the development sector.

Our communities of practice formulate collective policy responses on key issues, and influence governmental and institutional decision-making at national, European and global levels.

You can access all groups by logging in, if you aren't already. Your organisation must be a Bond member to access our groups.

If you are a business interested in supporting our working groups, please contact Will Connolly
