Community Development

Skills, health outreach and inclusive local action that help communities build lasting strength.

Participants and community leaders gathered after skills training in Akuapem

What this work means

Strong communities grow when people can access practical knowledge, essential services and opportunities close to home. Our community development work brings training, outreach and direct engagement into the places people already live and gather.

Areas of action

Technical and vocational skills

Training links young people and women with practical skills for employment and enterprise.

Community health outreach

Local health activities bring useful screening and information closer to community members.

Disability inclusion

Community engagement makes space for people with disabilities and the institutions that support them.

Local livelihoods

Skills, tools and community relationships help people develop more secure ways to earn and provide.

Documented activity
