|Description=AIDC was formed in 1996 in response to the democratic transition in South Africa and the new opportunities and challenges it brought those seeking greater social justice within the democracy.
The AIDC's mission is to produce and promote alternative knowledge and analysis which enables popular movements for social, economic and ecological justice to engage with the intersecting crises flowing from the natural, economic and social challenges confronting humanity.
Over the years AIDC has played a leading role in various civil society responses to climate change and worsening inequality including facilitating the launch and building of the One Million Climate Jobs Campaign, the South African Jubilee 2000 debt cancellation campaign, the Cry of the Excluded and the Right to Work Campaign, amongst others.
