Northern Girl Initiative - NGI

Northern Girl Initiative - NGI NGI is a Rgd Non-profit Organization that creates opportunities and provide support services to Girls

The “Northern Girl” is a metaphor to depict the vision of what and how the next generation of girls and women from the Northern Region of Ghana should look like. Embedded in this vision is a transformative element that targets opportunities and outcomes for girls and women from the region. It also entails a vision of girls and women as agents of change, whose empowerment will enhance their wellbei

ng and that of their households and the country at large. Having experienced the desolation of poverty and transcended socio-cultural barriers while growing up in the Northern Region, two sisters - Sahada Alolo and Dr. Namawu Alolo – conceived and developed the Northern Girl Initiative. The Northern Girl uses innovative channels to bridge key gender differences in Northern Region of Ghana. The initiative serves a catalyst to leverage opportunities for girls to scale new heights. Undoubtedly, women and girls face numerous challenges in the region. As such, it is fundamental to embrace strategic prioritisation of the areas of support in order to ensure maximum value addition on gender-related investments. The Northern Girl initiative therefore seeks to catalyse, convene and connect women and girls to important opportunities, particularly in the education sector and on the labour market. It is a vertical initiative where women themselves identify the prerequisites for their transition to the next stage in life. In so doing, a differentiated approach is used to identify and support the Northern Girl’s transformation. Linking girls and women to critical resources therefore becomes a crucial step in the barriers that undermine their progress.

Through the Digital Rights Advocacy, Activism and Security Training organised by the West Africa Civil Society Institute (WACSI) with support from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation.

We explored practical strategies for digital security, safe online advocacy, and responsible use of technology. From learning about data protection obligations in Ghana and conducting hands-on security audits, to examining technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV) and the role of Artificial Intelligence in advocacy, the sessions have been both insightful and practical.

Our key takeaway: protecting digital spaces is essential to protecting people, voices, and the causes we champion.







Ramadan Mubarak to all our followers.
