Young people may come from different communities, backgrounds and circumstances, but our aspirations are remarkably : we want opportunities to learn, grow, work, lead and build better futures.

This , we celebrate the diversity of young people while recognizing the common dreams that unite us,
From the young girl or boy in a rural community dreaming of becoming a doctor, to the young entrepreneur building a business, the student seeking quality education, the young activist advocating for change, or the young person with a disability demanding inclusion every young person deserves the opportunity to realize their potential.

Let us therefore move beyond celebrating to listening to their voices, investing in their skills, creating opportunities and giving them to participate in decisions that shape their lives and communities.

At Songtaba, we believe that when young people are empowered, supported and given the to lead, they become powerful agents of change.

Songtaba convened media professionals for a capacity-building workshop on legal and regulatory to prevent Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) in Ghana under the Creating Healthier Futures project in partnership with CAPHA.(Coalition of Actors for Public Health Advocacy).

The session opened with a sobering from Dr. Joyce Kalu Amoah, NCD Coordinator for Northern Region, who walked participants through the current prevalence of NCDs in the region - grounding the dayโ€™s conversations in the real scale of the challenge before turning to .

Participants also deepened their understanding of Ghanaโ€™s food-environment bundle - Front-of-Pack Warning Labelling (FOPWL), Food Marketing Restrictions, and Food-Related Fiscal Policies - and practiced translating this knowledge into accurate, evidence-based reporting through hands-on advocacy message development.

Participants were also equipped with on ethical reporting on health, nutrition, and regulatory policy issues to cover these topics responsibly, without sensationalism, and grounded in evidence.

The real win? Media houses didnโ€™t just leave with knowledge - they left with commitments. Participating stations pledged , TV time, and featured space in their publications to champion the campaign for healthier food environments and stronger NCD prevention across Ghana.
