Our Work

At the Centre for Youth Empowerment Health Rights Ghana (CYEHRG), we are committed to promoting the health, rights, and well-being of marginalized communities, particularly LGBTQI+ individuals and gender-based violence (GBV) survivors. Our work is centered on advocacy, psychosocial support, and community empowerment through innovative and sustainable approaches.

Psychosocial Support 

we provide first-response psychosocial support to GBV Survivors

Safety and Security Initiatives

We run discreet and confidential reporting systems for security threats, violence, and discrimination cases. Our partnership with the GBV Rapid Response System and documentation of cases with Rightify Ghana allows us to support victims and advocate for justice.

Community Engagement and Awareness Campaigns

Through virtual discussions and interactive sessions, we raise awareness of gender-based violence and human rights. Our Mpox online awareness and prevention webinars have reached many vulnerable individuals, equipping them with knowledge and protective strategies.

Advocacy and Human Rights Protection

We actively engage in online and offline advocacy for the rights of sexual minorities. Our initiatives include policy engagement, awareness creation on human rights violations, and providing a platform for community voices to be heard.

Capacity Building and Empowerment

Our empowerment programs focus on equipping individuals with knowledge and skills to navigate societal challenges.

Growth and Sustainability

we are also focused on long-term sustainability by strengthening our partnerships, expanding funding sources, and building a resilient organizational structure.
