Vision and Mission
PNI's Mission:
Our mission is to reduce poverty by increasing institutional capacities for sustainable development.
PNI's Vision:
Our vision is to see a Nigerian society where people have a more meaningful and greater influence on decisions that impact on their livelihoods and development.
Realising the vision:
To achieve our vision we focus on the following areas:
- Community-led Development: Institutions are encouraged to bring communities together for holistic participatory development planning that can support interventions in education, health, livelihoods, environment, women and youth empowerment, skills acquisition and access to credit. Planning is participatory and capacity is built for development plan implementation.
- Community Development Foundations: These have proven to be an important community institution that can support holistic development planning. As more stakeholders continue to adopt and adapt the Community Development Foundation Initiative, we will continue to encourage Community Development Foundations in support of community-led development.
- The Institute for Sustainable Development: Our training arm was established to support individual and institutional capacity for participatory community development, good governance and creating partnerships. The ISD also conducts research in support of our programmes and mission.
- Creating partnerships: Improving linkages between the communities and their government, civil society and the private sector. In doing so we promote improved local governance and corporate social responsibility
