It primarily engages with development professionals, policymakers, researchers, the media and the informed public.<ref>SciDev.Net. About Us. http://www.scidev.net/global/content/what-we-do.html</ref>
The organisation was founded in 2001<ref>SciDev.Net. About Us: History. http://www.scidev.net/global/content/what-we-do.html</ref> in response to the significant gap in scientific knowledge between rich and poor countries and with the understanding that “those who stand to benefit the most from modern science and technology are also those with the least access to information about it".<ref>IDRC (The International Development Research Centre).
