Girls in Ghana are stepping into new opportunities 👏🏿🇬🇭

CAMFED Ghana has partnered with the Ghana #TVET Service to expand access to technical and vocational education—bringing peer mentors, more training-to-job pathways, and stronger inclusion for students living with disabilities.

When a girl is excluded from education, inequality wins.💔⚖️

With education, girls have
📣 a voice
🌟 a choice
💼 & opportunities to create a better life

When one girl thrives, we know that statistically more will follow!
