EARN is a registered nonprofit and nongovernmental organization dedicated to addressing environmental challenges and climate change in Nigeria.
Our primary focus is to raise awareness about the devastating impact of oil pollution in Nigeria’s oil-producing areas. As an advocacy group, we are committed to accelerating efforts to combat the widespread issues of oil spills, gas flaring, and the illegal burning of crude oil—activities that contribute to climate change and environmental degradation in the country.
We are deeply concerned about the suffering and poverty faced by communities in oil-producing regions, who have endured severe environmental damage and the loss of their livelihoods due to oil pollution.
Our organization is dedicated to providing support and relief to the vulnerable and those affected by oil spill disasters. This includes empowering local youths and ensuring access to clean water for children and women in these impacted areas.
We aim to contribute to the global decarbonization movement and support Nigeria's efforts in climate action.
Our mission is to ensure that environmental and climate justice are achieved—not just globally, but particularly in Nigeria.
Together, we can work towards a carbon-free, green economy.
At EARN, our happiness comes from seeing others thrive because of our efforts.
Help us help others.
