Renevlyn Development Initiative (RDI) is a Nigerian non-governmental organisation that works with indigenous communities and grassroots groups to expose and challenge corporate impunity, unsound environmental practices and human rights violations.

RDI resists the exploitation of community resources without the Free Prior and Informed Consent of indigenous people. It aims to build the capacity of communities to influence government decisions, exercise their God-given sovereignty over what nature has bequeathed to them, and amplify their right to say YES or NO to exploitation of their resources.

RDI complies with the provisions of Section 17 (2) (a) of the Money Laundering (Prevention and Prohibition) Act 2022, and any other Law or Regulation.
