Shell Petroleum Development Cooperation, a CSR Program by Royal Dutch Shell plc

"Violence is becoming a constant presence in the Niger Delta, with a steady wave of attacks by militants against oil installations. Shell’s country chair in Nigeria discusses the root causes of the crisis and analyses the role private companies like Shell can play in helping Nigeria to find a way out. The joint venture Shell Petroleum Development Cooperation (SPDC) is a major revenue generator for the country, contributing more than $25 billion to the government over the last three years. Joint venture partners are Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Royal Dutch Shell, Total and Agip. In this new form of cooperation, the communities themselves are in charge of identifying priority projects and implementing them, with the help of NGOs. Shell provides its own funding and syndicate funding from other partners, including the government and NGOs. So the communities articulate their own future. And we hope this form of cooperation will contribute to building self-help capacity, increasing social cohesion, and reducing crime."
