We collaborate closely with other government agencies and departments at the federal, state, and local levels to coordinate efforts, share resources, and align policies for effective service delivery and development outcomes. By fostering inter-agency cooperation and collaboration, we seek to enhance the efficiency, effectiveness, and impact of government interventions across various sectors.

We partner with international organizations, multilateral institutions, and bilateral donors to access technical assistance, financial resources, and best practices for implementing development projects and programs in Edo State. Through strategic partnerships with organizations such as the World Bank, United Nations agencies, and development banks, we seek to leverage global expertise and resources to address priority areas such as infrastructure development, poverty reduction, and environmental sustainability.

Civil Society Engagement

We engage with civil society organizations, community groups, and non-governmental organizations to promote participatory governance, citizen engagement, and social accountability in decision-making processes. By collaborating with civil society stakeholders, we seek to ensure that development initiatives are inclusive, responsive to community needs, and accountable to the public.

Private Sector Collaboration

We partner with the private sector to catalyze investment, stimulate economic growth, and create employment opportunities in Edo State. Through public-private partnerships, joint ventures, and investment promotion initiatives, we seek to harness the resources, expertise, and innovation of the private sector to address development challenges and unlock new opportunities for sustainable development.

By partnering with universities, research centers, and think tanks, we seek to leverage research and expertise to inform policy decisions and foster innovation in governance and development practice.

Community and Stakeholder Engagement

We actively engage with communities, stakeholders, and marginalized groups to ensure that development interventions are inclusive, responsive, and equitable. Through participatory approaches such as community consultations, town hall meetings, and stakeholder forums, we seek to empower citizens, build trust, and promote ownership of development processes at the grassroots level.
