Empowering people. Powering communities.

Who we are, what we stand for, and the people leading IGDI’s mission across Isoko Nation and Delta State.

Who we are

A non-profit built on community, technology and clean energy

The Isoko Global Development Initiative (IGDI) is a non-profit, community-driven organisation committed to transforming lives through education, innovation, technology, entrepreneurship, renewable energy and sustainable development.

We believe every child, young person, woman, entrepreneur and community deserves access to the knowledge and opportunities needed to thrive in the digital economy — and to the reliable electricity that underpins it.

By investing in people today, we are building stronger communities and a brighter future for generations to come.
