Social Action is working with other organisations from the countries of the Gulf of Guinea to coordinate a network of citizens’ organisations in the region. The aim is to support communities and promote citizens’ solidarity in addressing regional environmental, human rights, poverty and security issues arising from increasing reliance on the region for global oil and gas supplies.

The Gulf of Guinea Citizens Network (GGCN) brings together a diverse group of civil society organizations and actors working to protect community and citizens’ rights and the national interest in resource extraction, trade and governance in the Gulf of Guinea Commission countries – Angola, Cameroon, Congo-Brazzaville, Congo-Kinshasa, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon, Nigeria, and Sao Tome e Principe. GGCN is coordinated by Social Action (Social Development Integrated Centre) in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, and the Citizens’ Governance Initiatives (CGI) in Yaoundé, Cameroon.
