     Origin and came into being of the Integrated Development Initiatives Development IDI Chittagong Hill Tracts is a part of Chittagong division situated at the south -east part of Bangladesh and comprises of three Hill Districts namely Rangamati, Bandarban and Khagrachari, which are hilly, remote and inhibited by mostly indigenous people. This region is distinct from other parts of Bangladesh in terms of languages, religion, tradition, social customs and norms; land and its structure. It is resourceful with its natural beauty but the situation is worse than that of other parts of Bangladesh. The rural disadvantaged community people of CHT have little access to income and resources to meet their basic needs. 

The Integrated Development Initiatives Development organization was established by some enthusiastic like minded young  volunteers in1995 with a vision for economic empowerment of the disadvantaged community peoples who are socially and economically discriminated and neglected in the society. The IDI is a word of working on development together. IDI is a non-profit, non-sectarian, non government voluntary development organization. The organization strongly believes that people are resourceful and can tape resources if they are empowered that is, empower to think, empower to articulate and empower to organize and through empowering, they will be able to come out of the vicious cycle of poverty and underdevelopment.
