An orientation is only meaningful when what is learnt finds its way into action.

Following their orientation under the Project, the advocates took the bold step of putting their knowledge into practice at Suniaya JHS, engaging pupils in open and practical conversations on menstrual health, hygiene, and the confident use of menstrual products.

This is more than a sensitisation session. It is a sign of growing confidence, ownership and leadership among young advocates who are choosing to use their voices and knowledge to make menstrual health conversations more accessible to their peers.

We celebrate our YMK Advocates! Your willingness to step forward, share what you have learnt, and create safe spaces for others to learn is exactly the kind of action that turns training into impact.

The journey from orientation to action has begun, and this is only the beginning.

Happy Founders’ Day

Today, we reflect on the vision and sacrifices that laid the foundation for Ghana’s independence and continue to shape our aspirations as a nation.

At REEP GHANA , we believe that the Ghana of tomorrow is built by investing in the potential of every child, especially girls, whose voices, talents, and leadership are essential to our collective progress.

The Project made a stop at Kpendua with a community drama to spark an important conversation on menstrual hygiene and the wellbeing of adolescent girls.

The story followed families and three different choices.

One family supported their daughter with a menstrual cup, and she stayed healthy and in school.

Another family denied their daughter access to menstrual products, leaving her vulnerable, and the outcome was a teenage pregnancy and death from an unsafe abortion.

And the last family publicly rejected the cup while quietly using it at home, a double standard that keeps alive.

The evening included a demonstration on proper cup use and a Q&A that cleared up common .

Traditional leaders, youth leaders, parents, and community members all showed up, a sign of growing support for adolescent girls in Kpendua.

No girl should have to choose between her education, her dignity, and access to products.

🎂🎉 𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐮𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 🎉🎂

Today, we celebrate more than a birthday. We celebrate a visionary, a trailblazer, a mentor, a leader and a man whose heart has always made room for others.

To our Board Chairman .abdulfatawu, your journey with REEP-Ghana is a story of vision transformed into action, compassion transformed into service and a simple desire to make a difference transformed into a movement that continues to touch lives.

From the very beginning, you dared to believe that every child deserves an opportunity, every young girl deserves to be heard and every community deserves the chance to thrive. That belief became the foundation upon which REEP-Ghana was built and your unwavering commitment continues to inspire the work we do every day.

Your leadership has never been only about giving direction. It has been about believing in people, creating opportunities, opening doors and reminding us that meaningful change begins when someone is courageous enough to care.

Today, we honour the man behind the vision. We celebrate your sacrifices, your resilience, your generosity, your wisdom and the countless lives that have been touched because you chose to serve.

May this new chapter bring you abundant joy, excellent health, greater fulfilment, and countless reasons to smile. May your dreams continue to grow, may your impact continue to multiply and may the seeds you have planted continue to flourish for generations to come.

This was an insightful moment for us all.

That's what was happening in , , and -Kushebo in Kumbungu District. The project held a community forum on oral health, bringing together youth and women leaders, traditional and opinion leaders, and assembly members.

Many people brush with chewing sticks that have no and miss the inner surfaces of their , letting plaque build up. The forum explained how that leads to decay, why fluoride toothpaste matters, and the right way to brush. There was also a simple activity on foods that help or harm the teeth, and a Q&A clearing up myths like whether or chewing gum can clean teeth.

Dentists, SHEP Coordinators, Health Promotion Officers, teachers, and staff from Ghana Health Service and Ghana Education Service reviewed an health manual originally developed for Guatemala, now being adapted for Ghanaian schools.

Working in small groups, the team went through the manual and agreed on key additions: supervised in schools, diet tips using local foods like cowpea, clearer referral signs for teachers, and songs and quizzes to engage children.

In , Karaga District, the II Project brought together women leaders, youth leaders, assembly members, traditional authorities, and community volunteers for a forum designed to create a safe space to learn, ask questions, and confront long-standing misconceptions about menstruation and reproductive health.

The forum covered menstrual health, ovulation, and how to distinguish normal patterns from signs requiring medical attention. Participants engaged actively, particularly around practical questions on using menstrual cups during daily activities, and received clear, evidence-based answers.

Positive feedback from leaders and participants alike highlighted the ongoing need for menstrual health education in the community. In response, is taking ownership of the effort by establishing a Community Menstrual #𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐞 to sustain awareness and support for women and girls going forward.

As stakeholders emphasized ,when communities are informed, girls are empowered, stigma is reduced, and menstrual health becomes everyone's responsibility.

This year's global theme, "Different Contexts, Common Aspirations," reminds us that young people everywhere, regardless of where they come from, share the same hopes.Euality education, good health, decent work, meaningful participation and a future they can help shape.

At .ghana, empowering young people sits at the heart of everything we do. From building peace and resolving conflict in their communities, to championing girls' voice and rights, promoting adolescent health and wellbeing and equipping youth with the skills and platforms to lead, we work across multiple fronts to ensure young people are not left behind.

Because when young people are informed, healthy, heard and empowered, they don't just wait for the future. They build it.

Happy International Youth Day to every young person driving change in their community!
