Our mission
Promoting habitat conservation and improving styles of livelihood through education and presentation of appropriate technologies.
Coastal and Marine Areas Development Initiative (CMADI) is a non-governmental organisation incorporated in December 2010. It was birthed due to the need to address several challenges in the coastal communities. We are located in the heart of the Niger Delta collaborating with people and organisations to promote and improve sustainable development.
We believe that every conservation and sustainable livelihood action contributes to the collective positive outcome for effective societal growth and development.

PREVIOUS EVENTS
WASH in communities (March- April 2020)
CMADI provided hand washing stations at specific points in two communities (Egbokodo Itsekiri and Ijala Ikenren in the Warri metropolis). They also had mini one-to-one and community education on COVID-19 and the importance of handwashing. The stations covered roughly 3000 people (both women and children). Provision of masks and soaps for children of 40 families.
WASH in Schools (Wins) and Girl Child Mentoring under the Community Girl Project
The Community Girl Project was birthed because of the burden we have on the young girls in our society. It is known that the girl child is at risk of many vices of society that lead to long-term consequences resulting in a failed society. Teenage pregnancy has become far too apparent in our communities. We realised that girls get pregnant due to a lack of self-awareness, inadequate education, poor knowledge about sex, and inefficient usage of contraceptives. These have led to the spread of sexually transmitted diseases.
Skills for Living MPCS
We birthed a new project in January 2019 under our entrepreneurial development unit. We created the project to help train interested persons to go into small and medium-scale craft making. The project aims to enable participants to become self-sustainable.
CMADI has engaged and trained youths with positive outcomes toward decent work and employment in our communities in the following areas:
Leather works footwear and its components, belts, bags, etc.
Fabrics for upcycling and recycling African prints and cloths for reusable sanitary pads, tote bags, school bags, books, and shoe patterns. Water hyacinth (lakwa training) to produce baskets, mats, hair accessories, bags, and lots more.

Our Testimonials
What They Say About Us
When I was a teenager, I loved being expressive, I love to air my view, speak for or against notions, answer questions in class, etc. I went ahead to join the debating club in my secondary school, I did this to enable me to find people like me who love to express themselves too, especially in words.
