The NILE African Development Organisation (The NILE) works with indigenous local and international partners to create and sustain Grassroots Organisations, which serve the transformation of needy communities

The NILE's partners each exists within its local community, and the vision and direction of their work is truly indigenous.

They have specific communication skills and cultural acceptability which would be much more difficult for any outside organisation to achieve. Their strategies, methods and cost patterns relate to local circumstances. And they are there long-term.

The NILE assists by providing resources of all kinds, including skills, and by linking them with a worldwide network of experience.

Working in this way, The NILE ensures that our donors' contributions are put to the optimum use.

The NILE Aims to enhance and expand the capacity of Africans in the Diaspora to contribute to Africa's development.

Mission Statement

For if resources are which determine the richest of a people then African countries like Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda, Burundi, Nigeria, Angola, Sudan, and DRC Congo would be some of the richest in the world and countries like Israel, Singapore, United Kingdome or Hong Kong would be some of the poorest. 

Empirical evidence  however demonstrates that it is the country that have embraced technology (the adequate exploitation of their mind resource), who have done  better than those even more endowed with oil, gold, diamonds and even platinum.
