About SDN
Established in 2004…
Stakeholder Democracy Network (SDN) was established as a non-governmental not-for-profit organisation in 2004 to support those affected by the extractives industry and weak governance.
SDN is based in the Niger Delta, and led by our local team with extensive experience of living and working there. This is reflected through a focus on pragmatic and positive solutions in our research and project work, sensitive to the political and social dynamics of the Niger Delta.
Who we work and engage with
We work with communities and engage with governments, companies and other stakeholders to ensure the promotion and protection of human rights, including the right to a healthy environment. Our work currently focuses on the Niger Delta.
How we work
Guided by principles of participation, inclusion and non-discrimination, SDN promotes the perspectives and experiences of those living in the Niger Delta at the centre of all of our work, and encourages transparency and accountability between all actors in the region.
What we do
We have four overarching areas of work:
- Protecting the environment and addressing climate impacts
- Promoting good governance
- Fostering sustainable livelihoods
- Supporting peace and security
