Advancing Human Rights & Civic Empowerment
Championing democratic values and citizen empowerment across Nigeria. Explore the impact of our work in transforming lives and policies nationwide.
How We Are Making a Difference
CHRICED promotes understanding and commitment of citizens and groups to the ideals, values and principles of democracy. It enhances citizens understanding lest they become cynical, apathetic, or simply withdraw from political life when their expectations are not met. This is based on our firm belief in the critical role of citizens and groups as the drivers and sustainers of democracy. Without the active involvement of citizens in political life, the power and legitimacy of government are questioned, and democracy and democratic culture will be threatened.
