ABOUT

ABOUT US 

Since 1986,

GDCA has been at the heart of Northern Ghana’s transformation

IMG_4520.JPG

Over the years, we have grown into a leading force for change, implementing a wide range of development initiatives that respond to evolving needs. Today, GDCA serves as an umbrella organization, bringing together several local groups and partnering with international allies to build a future where every community can thrive.

We expand inclusive access to quality education in under-served communities across Northern Ghana and foster civic awareness so that children and young people grow into informed citizens who can engage meaningfully in society.

GDCA strengthens the food and water security of vulnerable households by supporting climate-smart agriculture, improved natural resource management, and livelihood diversification. Our focus is on building community resilience to the growing impacts of climate change.

We empower communities to take part in decision-making processes at local and district levels. GDCA promotes transparency, accountability and good governance by fostering constructive dialogue between citizens and authorities.

We support women, farmer groups and young entrepreneurs with access to finance, skills development, and opportunities for enterprise creation. By unlocking their economic and social potential, GDCA contributes to inclusive growth and stronger community development.

To remain a trusted voice and effective actor, GDCA invests in its own growth. We strengthen our systems for transparency and accountability, while strategically positioning ourselves in networks and alliances with community-based organisations, local authorities and development partners.
