Community Partners for Development (CPD) is a non-governmental organization (NGO), founded in 1997 to promote improved quality of life, environment and human rights in Nigeria and beyond. The creation of Community Partners for Development was in response to the endemic poverty, the unplanned growth of the communities, the declining quality of the health delivery system, the exploding population and the gradual degradation of the environment that accompanies them. It is our belief in CPD that these unmet needs can and should be improved through action-oriented and grassroots targeted projects.
