Champions in Action
More People. Stronger Communities.
From community volunteers to inclusion ambassadors, many people are championing change and advancing mental health, rights and inclusion across Ghana. We maximise lived and learned experience through active consultation and participation.
In self-help peer support groups, people with lived experience and primary caregivers support one another — building social functioning and connectedness; knowledge, confidence and empowerment; and livelihoods and wellbeing — and lead self-representation with government and other duty bearers.
Different people. Shared purpose. Brighter futures.
