The Foundation for Partnership Initiatives in the Niger Delta (PIND) is a non-profit organization that promotes peace and equitable economic growth in the Niger Delta region through strategic partnerships and collaborations. Our United States counterpart, the Niger Delta Partnerships Initiative, is based in Washington, DC.
Our vision is to foster a strong legacy of sustainable peace and development among communities in the Niger Delta.
Drive sustainable peace and development in the Niger Delta through strategic partnerships and systemic interventions.
We cultivate relationships that thrive on co-creation, shared goals, interdependency and organizational transformation.
In dealing with our partners and stakeholders, we strive for honesty, accountability and transparency.
This value lies in our strong funder relationships, consistent revenue sourcing ability and our track record as a dependable development partner.
We aim always to be recognised as a model for other peace and economic development actors within the Niger Delta, hence why we consistently seek new and better ways to add value to what we do.
Our projects span all nine states of Nigeria’s Niger Delta region.
Better functioning market systems: for agricultural and MSME, youth skills development for employment, finance, and access to renewable energy which are benefiting 800,000 farmers and MSMEs, 50% of whom increase their income by 40%, the creation of 150,000 new jobs of which 50% will be youths and other vulnerable groups, and 250 communities electrified.
Investment by donors/funders influenced by PIND in Niger Delta ($50million): Funds from donor/funders influenced by PIND into the region; Funds raised for PIND managed activities (Raise additional funds from private sector and donor community for PIND programs. A minimum of $7.5 million raised for PIND, equivalent to 30% of Chevron’s funding).
Integration of climate adaptation and mitigation initiatives to increase resilience in the Niger Delta:
Stimulate market for carbon credits in ND (value generated from mangroves, plantations, etc.) MSD, A2E, SK, Advocacy; Reduction of GHG Emission from renewable energy (A2E); Mitigation plans on negative impact of flooding through community plans (Peacebuilding and MSD); Numbers of enterprises selling bio/organic products, value of sales.
HCDTs are co-investing in their priority projects to improve economic and peace agendas in their communities: Enhance the capacity of Host Community Development Trusts (HCDTs), to co-design and co-invest in interventions to stimulate skills development, linkages to markets, and renewable solutions for job creation and income generation in their communities.
Reducing conflict and promoting peace: ensuring a sustainable and effective deployment of P4P Network; cultivating linkage between Peace Building and Economic Development; delivering value to Chevron; and addressing regional conflict issues.
We have come up with a plan informed by insights and needs of the Niger Delta distilled from a Participatory Strategic Review (PSR) process involving 180 interviews and focus group discussions with 14 regional, national and international stakeholder groups.
