According to a statement released by the body on July 25, 2024, this initiative aims to support the missions of these NGOs and enable them to scale their work both locally and globally.

This falls in line with Global Citizens approach to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals by strengthening social and economic development, creating jobs, and supporting non-profits to drive local impact.

“Through this partnership, Global Citizen and its non-profit partners will work collaboratively to create lasting change and drive progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals across Ghana,” Liz Agbor-Tabi, Global Citizen’s Vice President of Global Policy and Strategic Relationships, stated.
