Who We Partner With

Built for Institutions That Drive Change

From academic research groups to multilateral development agencies, NRI partnerships are structured to deliver real, measurable value — data access, shared research, and intelligence tools aligned to your institution's mission.

Universities & Research Institutions

Access structured, anonymised incident data for peer-reviewed research and policy white papers. NRI supports joint research agreements and academic co-publication grounded in verified national data.

Dataset Access API Integration

Policy Think Tanks

Embed NRI's LGA-level risk scores and trend analysis directly into policy briefs and legislative research. Our predictive threat modelling helps translate complex security data into actionable policy recommendations.

Risk Scoring Trend Analysis

NGOs & Civil Society

Equip field teams with hyperlocal risk intelligence across specific states and communities. NRI works with local and international NGOs to improve situational awareness, staff safety planning, and community resilience.

Location Data Joint Reporting

Development Agencies & Partners

NRI data supports programme design, risk-adjusted investment decisions, and conflict-sensitivity assessments for bilateral and multilateral agencies operating across Nigeria's 36 states and FCT.

Partnership Benefits

What Partners Get Access To

NRI offers institutional partners access to the same intelligence stack trusted by security professionals across banking, energy, telecoms, and logistics — with additional data rights, analyst support, and co-publication privileges.

API Access

Programmatic access to NRI's incident feeds, LGA-level risk indices, and historical trend data. Partners receive higher rate limits and documented endpoints for direct system integration.

Historical Data & Trend Analysis

Full access to historical incident records and predictive threat modelling by risk type, state, and time period — enabling longitudinal research and evidence-based programme design.

Custom Reports & Dashboards

Bespoke state-level or sector-specific intelligence reports tailored to your organisation's geographic focus and operational risk categories, delivered on a schedule that suits your workflow.

Early Warning Alerts

Priority access to early warning notifications on emerging threats — terrorism, communal conflict, kidnapping, armed robbery — with direct integration into your security operations workflow.

Dedicated Analyst Support

A named NRI analyst liaison for onboarding, methodology briefings, and bespoke data queries. Partners receive direct access to the research team, not a helpdesk queue.

Bulk Data Exports

Export structured datasets in standard formats for offline analysis, academic research, or integration with third-party GIS, BI, and risk management platforms.

    Open the Enquiry Form
  2. Step 02

    Discovery Call & Needs Assessment

    A named NRI analyst will contact you via your preferred channel — email, phone, or WhatsApp — to discuss your specific data requirements, geographic focus, and the right access tier. We tailor onboarding to your institution's workflow, not the other way around.

  3. Step 03

    Access, Integration & Ongoing Support

    Once onboarded, you receive API credentials, dataset documentation, and a dedicated analyst liaison. Institutional partners can request custom reports, arrange data exports, and contribute to joint research publications under a shared NRI co-authorship agreement.
