VISION
OUR AIMS & OBJECTIVES
The main vision of NIDOE is to harness the enormous potentials of Nigerians living in Europe and bring them together to offer their various skills to assist Nigeria's developmental process.
NIDOE recognizes that the most important resources in any country for sustainable development are not material but human resources, which are sufficiently available in Nigeria. Yet, rapid development is not taking place in Nigeria.
This is because these human resources, particularly of those Nigerians in the Diaspora are not being properly harnessed and tapped into. Often Government does not know how to identify and locate these resources.
NIDOE-Austria provides the platform for all Nigerians living in Austria to identify these resources, come forward to offer their skills and experiences, work and collaborate with one another in the task of nation building.
