Société des designers graphiques du Québec  (SDGQ) and
University and College Design Association (UCDA) are GDC affliates.

GDC is a member of Icograda (International Council of Graphic Design Associations) and has been a member since 1974.

We are pleased to be able to state that discussions and meetings have been taking place to re-affiliate officially with RGD Ontario. GDC Executive Director Melanie MacDonald and President Jim Hudson CGD met with RGD Ontario Executive Director Hilary Ashworth and President Lionel Gadoury R.G.D. in August to establish the groundwork for moving forward in re-establishing our relationship in a manner that will benefit and strengthen the profession across Canada. Expect a full report in the coming months!!

The GDC liaises on an ongoing basis with all like-minded groups across Canada and internationally to promote the value of design and support other associations in their endeavours. You can see a full list of Canadian design-related associations on our website.
