ActionAid Ghana

Organization in Ghana supporting rights of people

ActionAid Ghana (AAG) supports the basic needs and rights of people living in poverty. We do not impose solutions but work with communities to strengthen their own efforts, making the most of their knowledge and experience, to improve their access to services. We also work with government, community groups, partners and others to make policies that enhance the quality of life or change policies and practices that affect their lives negatively. ActionAid Ghana uses a rights-based approach (that is working within the human rights framework) to development to help build peoples power to hold duty bearers to account, protect the rights of the poor and vulnerable with the hope of eradicating poverty.

Accounts

No accounts available from the sources we use.

European Union funding

Amounts committed each year by the European Commission to the organisation (contracts and grants), from the EU Financial Transparency System. A commitment often covers several project years and, in consortia, may include shares of other partners. They are not income for the year and should not be compared directly with the accounts.

Spending on declared projects (IATI)

Only the projects the organisation publishes on IATI: usually a fraction of its total spending (median 14% in our checks).
