12th May, 2026:

As part of the implementation of the Gender Justice Caravan Project, funded by , EWEF partnered with DOVVSU and NYA to host a live radio discussion on Kings Radio, Konongo to raise public awareness on gender-based violence (GBV) and promote community action against abuse and discrimination.
The discussion provided an important platform to educate listeners on the different forms, causes, and effects of GBV, while also addressing harmful social norms that contribute to violence against women and girls.
The team emphasized the importance of speaking up, supporting survivors, and using available reporting mechanisms such as DOVVSU and Social Welfare services.
The interactive nature of the program allowed listeners to call in, ask questions, and share their perspectives and experiences. This created meaningful community dialogue and increased public engagement on issues that are often silenced or misunderstood.
The discussion contributed to increased awareness and understanding of GBV among listeners within Konongo and surrounding communities.

Today, Staff Members, Board Members, and Young Ambassadors of EWEF actively participated in phase one of the Participatory Institutional Assessment and Planning (PIAP) processes facilitated by under the Renewed Women’s Voice and Leadership (RWVL) Project.

The session marked a significant milestone in the implementation of our 'Sesa Wo Ho Project', laying a strong foundation for the organizational development component of the initiative.
Through interactive discussions and self-assessment exercises, participants critically reflected on EWEF’s institutional strengths, operational gaps, governance systems, and long-term sustainability goals.

The process provided a valuable opportunity for inclusive engagement, ensuring that the voices of staff, leadership, and young ambassadors were integrated into shaping the organization’s growth pathway.

Key areas discussed included organizational governance, financial management, safeguarding, program quality, youth participation, and strategic positioning categorized under five key domains.

Beyond assessment, the exercise strengthened team cohesion and renewed the collective commitment to building a resilient, accountable, and youth-responsive organization capable of driving sustainable impact for women and young people in Ghana.

EWEF remains grateful to Plan International Ghana for the technical support and partnership in strengthening local women-led organizations through the RWVL Project.
