At Brain Builders Youth Development Initiative (BBYDI), we are driven by our passion and commitment to achieve good governance, promote civic engagement and peaceful political participation, youth entrepreneurship, advancing civic liberties and championing the Sustainable Development Goals(SDGs). Founded in 2014, BBYDI started as a student initiative on the campus of the University of Ilorin. We are run by youths who volunteer to meet the objectives of the organization.
Over the years, we have built a reputation as an NGO at the forefront of demanding the formulation of youth-oriented policies through a series of advocacies and partnerships with other civil societies. Our methodology is to use data-driven analyses to seek transparency and accountability from the government.
Through our innovative programmes, we have reached out to over 2 million Nigerians both online and offline. Our engagements have focused on the implementation of the SDGs, provision of quality education, empowering local communities and building an enabling environment for entrepreneurship to thrive. In 2019, we launched an initiative called the “Localising the SDGs” which is targeted at getting the SDGs to the local communities and accelerate the implementation of the goals.
