DAG is a Kano based, not for profit, non-religious and non-discriminatory organization with its head office in Kano. Having over 80 percent of  its operations, since inception implemented in Kano and around the Northwest zone  and North Central of  Nigeria. Since the year 2000 that DAG was founded and registered, it has developed capabilities and skills on high level and complex project designs. The past years of proven dexterity and consistent development and social work has endowed DAG with structures and operational designs that have helped the organization to implement successful programs with high output and optimality. DAG is structured in such a way that internal and external accountability to our members and donors takes top priority. The key organs of DAG include Board of Trustee, Board of  Directors, Management Team and Advisory Board/Patrons. It is the board of  directors and the management team that combines its skills to ensure effective delivery and reporting of our entire project.

DAG was established to provide a platform and required intervention that will contribute to a more peaceful and conflict free Kano state, northwest and Nigeria as a whole. The previous ethno-religious conflicts that affected the northwest region more justifies the coming into being of DAG. To mitigate conflict, build peace, Violence Extremism and Interfaith Dialogue and promote sustainable development, DAG has a team of  vastly talented and experienced personnel that can work towards realising the vision and mission of the organization.
