In an attempt to better understand and reflect the needs and desires of youth in the Niger Delta in its programs and project, the foundation for Partnership Initiatives in the Niger Delta (PIND), a non-profit organization established a guiding principle to integrate youth participation and mainstreaming of their issues into every aspect of project design and implementation to foster equitable participation and benefit for all. The foundation intends to design, fund and build broad stakeholder support for programs and activities that will empower communities and youth to generate equitable socio- economic development in the Niger Delta to achieve a peaceful and enabling environment for equitable economic growth.
