The agitation and warfare waged by militants and communities in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria is now widely acknowledged as one of the key challenges facing both the government and the corporate organizations with investment in the region.  The Amnesty Programme of the government has created a chance for peace building.

But while the government has the responsibility to address the constitutional, political and other juridical aspects of the conflict, corporate organizations face a critical need to rethink the strategies by which they relate with the local communities in which they operate.

The main aim of this seminar is to generate the ideas and modalities that could shape a new thinking in community relations by companies operating in the Niger Delta region and elsewhere in Nigeria.  The seminar was developed by Dr. Austin Tam-George, an expert in the subject.

Conceived in 2009, the seminar generates a lot of interest in corporate and governmental circles.  For more information about this seminar, click here.
