About CEYOND

Rooted in Edo. Reaching every diaspora.

The Coalition of Edo Youths in Nigeria and Diaspora exists to organize, connect, and equip young Edo people — wherever they've landed — to shape the future of their state.

Who we are

A coalition built by the youths it serves.

CEYOND brings Edo youths together — at home and across the diaspora — around a shared belief: real change starts with people who show up for their own community. What began as a small network has grown into a movement of organizers, volunteers, and thinkers working across borders on the same agenda.

Voice

Every member has a say in shaping where the coalition goes next.

Truth

We organize around facts and lived experience, not noise.

Unity

Home and diaspora, one coalition working toward the same goals.

Insight

Conferences and discussions built to surface ideas worth acting on.

Our Programs

Three ways CEYOND puts the mission to work.

01

Community Engagements

Community development is very crucial to CEYOND, and we believe the way to obtain these different objectives is to engage our community through active interactions and interventions. This engagement comes through numerous programs we organize physically and virtually, amongst which is the annual CEYOND Townhall Conference.

02

Partnerships & Collaborations

While CEYOND fosters greatly on self-initiated programs, we also see the opportunity to engage with like-minded organizations who share the same vision as us. We establish these collaborations in order to extend our reach on projects and engagements.

03

Volunteering Connections

Our community is full of people who want to help. We provide volunteering assistance to the people who truly need them. CEYOND prides itself on establishing a solid network of volunteers from different communities and educational institutions engaged in different volunteering activities.

Want to organize with us?

Volunteers, partner organizations, and diaspora chapters are always welcome.
