We are excited to announce the launch of the Empowerment Grant Program for NGOs in Nigeria, facilitated by the Development Research and Projects Centre (dRPC).
At dRPC, we pride ourselves on being a dedicated non-profit organization that has been actively supporting and empowering local CSOs for over three decades. Our focus lies in promoting gender equality, enhancing the resilience of the third sector, and advocating for social justice and inclusion in both development and humanitarian efforts. The NSI Grant program has been made possible through the generous support of the Ford Foundation’s West Africa office.
