About Human Development Initiatives(HDI), Nigeria.

Human Development Initiatives (HDI) is a not-for-profit, Non-Governmental Organization established in 1997 in response to fundamental issues of poverty, injustice, neglect, deprivation, and inequality especially among vulnerable populations, particularly women and children. HDI which envisions a society of empowered humans devoid of social and economic vulnerabilities, became fully registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission of Nigeria in 1998, having her head office in Lagos but with widespread impact across 5 of the 6 geo-political zones in Nigeria. Her empowerment programs for women, widows, youths, adolescents, and children (especially orphans, widows’ children and children with disability), are implemented through capacity development and skills acquisition programmes aimed at ensuring civic engagement and participation in governance to address inequality and social injustice. Our focal areas of intervention at HDI are the following: o Youths and child’s rights advocacy o Schools intervention program o Governance & accountability o Life-skill training and economic empowerment o Free legal and psycho-social counselling services o Media advocacy and public education o Law policy and government reforms o Medical and health intervention programs o Educational scholarship programs HDI’s activities also cover research, building partnerships and collaborations with organisations, and networks that share her vision.
