Our Projects

The extent to which economies are going more digital, the situation could get worse, if girls or women are not empowered to fit the digital world. It is estimated that more than 75million jobs are to be lost whiles 133million new jobs created. Tackling gender equality in the emerging world, “STEM4HER” project is the bridge to transform young girls and or women into the digital world to be economically empowered, most especially now that COVID-19 present a worst scenario with most organizations laying-off workers. As part of our STEM4HER project we got a grant from the U.S Embassy Ghana on a project known as “GIRLS GO DIGITAL”. <br />The focus of the project was to offer young girls between age 15 to 25 years the opportunity to learn mobile/web development and robotics (IOT) targeted at bridging the gap of gender inequality in STEM related careers in the Upper West Region. From the inception of the training: 3/09/2020 to 31/03/2021, six (6) batches were trained and completed course successfully. <br />In all, a total of 314 young girls were trained in Mobile App/Web Development and Robotics (IoTs) modules. Also, about 221 stakeholders including youth groups and organizations were sensitize on the opportunities available for young girls in the STEM career fields. Again, 33 STEM4HER Campus Clubs were created in schools of participants and 20 “Girls Go Digital Alumni” community clubs. This project was partnered by Noni Hub and National Youth Authority, Wa.<br />
In collaboration with W FM we have a weekly radio programme known as “Our Voice” which serves as a platform for the youth to air their views on these selected topic areas and also they get the opportunity to ask questions to policy makers and those responsible for the implementation process.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on communities across the globe, particularly in terms of economic, social and health. In Ghana, many communities have experienced job losses and the pandemic had exposed the weakness in our health systems. Rural communities have seen reduced access to medical care, and a lack of essential supplies such as personal protective equipment (PPE). The pandemic has also exacerbated existing disparities in health and economic outcomes between rural and urban areas, with rural communities often being at a disadvantage due to lower access to resources. As part of our mandate in helping improve the health needs of our communities, training on how to make PPEs (Nose masks, Sanitizers) was given to 20 young women in the Wa central constituency of the Upper West Region. These young women were expected to train other young women in their various communities on how to make these PPEs.
Teen Pad Drive Campaign, provides menstrual hygiene products and education to girls in underprivileged communities.<br />Menstruation is a natural biological process, yet for many girls around the world, it poses a significant challenge. Lack of access to menstrual products and proper sanitation facilities can lead to absenteeism from school, increased health risks, and a decreased sense of dignity.<br />Our campaign aims to address this issue by providing girls with the resources they need to manage their periods with confidence and comfort. This includes not just pads but also education on menstrual hygiene, reproductive health, and self-care. <br />The teen pad drive has so far provided sanitary pads to over 2000 rural teenage girls and still counting.
This project has empowered 81 teen mothers by sending them back to school and giving some skills training thereby giving them a life of dignity and economically empowering them. Break-down of teen Mum Project has been able to send 41 teen mothers back to school, 27 are acquiring skills in soap making, beads and dress making, 13 have successfully completed and reintegrated back into their families
Globally, women and girls continue to face significant barriers to accessing comprehensive sexual and reproductive health education and services. This can lead to negative health outcomes, including unintended pregnancies, sexually transmitted infections, and maternal mortality. Additionally, lack of sexual and reproductive health education can contribute to gender-based violence and discrimination. Our safe spaces provide teenagers a comfortable, secure and a free from bullying, harassment in any form and discrimination space. The space provides support services such as counselling, mentorship, recreational and educational activities whilst giving teenagers the opportunity to peer lead. So far, our safe space has hosted over 500 teenagers, 150 of whom were males.
