Background
National Empowerment Development Program (NEDP), is a South Sudanese women-led, humanitarian non-profit, non-governmental, non – political and non-sectarian National NGO established in 2020 by a group of powerful and strong skilled women and NEDP in 2024 is legally registered with the Relief and Rehabilitation Commission (RRC) at the national level under Chapter 3, section 10 of NGO Act 2016, under the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs; Republic of South Sudan, Certificate Reg. No. 5242
NEDP was established by a group of visioned indigenous South Sudanese women who are nationals with a common goal to development and strengthen the capacity of the marginalized population within South Sudan through provision of emergency and developmental aid to meet their needs.
NEDP was to deal with the present socio-economic and environmental problems facing women, youth and children in diverse local settings by means of good understanding and sharing the problems with each other and to find out the best way of solving the problems through free discussion and people participation in the decision making and get-together under one umbrella of NEDP
NEDP took into consideration the aspect of value-added activities through implementing emergency and developmental programs in partnerships with other national, private sectors, individual actors, international organizations, local authorities and national government.
Today, we stand as a testament to what’s possible when compassion meets action, when vision is backed by dedication, and when a community rallies around a shared purpose.
