Teen Talk Ghana, in partnership with the Ghana Health Service, Mental Health Authority, National Disaster Management Organization and the International Organization for Migration (IOM), successfully supported the implementation of Community Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) Awareness Durbars under the European Union-funded ATUU Project across five districts(Wa-Zongo, Dabo, Tizza, Funsi, Nadowli )in the Upper West Region.
Through the community durbars, participants gained a better understanding of mental health, available psychosocial support services, referral pathways, and the importance of creating safe and supportive environments for returnees and other vulnerable members of society.
The durbars brought together traditional and religious leaders, local authorities, health professionals, returnees, and community members to promote open conversations, reduce stigma, and strengthen community-based support systems.
By encouraging empathy, social inclusion, and collaboration, the initiative has helped build stronger community networks that will continue to champion mental well-being and ensure that no one is left behind.
