In 2015, we commenced the second phase of our work by developing a new strategic plan for 2015 -2019. Being a learning organization, the plan is informed by two key reviews – a Look Back Peer Review led by Chevron held in the third year of our first phase funding to assess our performance against original objectives and a comprehensive Participatory Strategic Review (PSR) to provide strategic direction and identify opportunities for continued development with respect to the partnership-based approach. The PSR gathered data through key informant interviews, focus group discussions and telephone surveys. In total 102 face-to-face interviews took place in Nigeria involving 316 stakeholders. A further 30 interviews took place among the Washington DC-based development community (where NDPI is based). A telephone-based survey of 1300 participants was also conducted across the Niger Delta states.
