Channel Title: Niger-Delta Poverty Project Channel Description: Niger-Delta Poverty Project (NDPP) is a non-governmental initiative aimed to advancing education for development in the Niger Delta region. Although various multinational corporations (MNCs)–specifically those involved in the petroleum sector–contribute to the rising GDP of Nigeria and promise economic stability, this is done at the expense of the citizens in the Niger-Delta. MNCs cause environmental destruction, obliterating annual yields and polluting clean drinking sources. Therefore, NDPP aims to spread awareness and fundraise for those living in poverty in the Niger-Delta provinces. Our work is holistically minded, aimed to advance Nigerian communities toward well-being and self-sufficiency. NDPP actively works toward poverty eradication and alleviation by promoting human rights and sustainable development based on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG) framework.
