What do we do?

The Gender Studies and Human Rights Documentation Centre (Gender Centre) is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation based in Ghana and dedicated to promoting women’s human rights. The Centre’s approach to addressing gender issues is two-pronged. First, we conduct quantitative and qualitative field research in order to provide facts and testimonies of specific gender issues. Then, based on the findings of the research, we hold meetings, workshops and training programmes in order to promote activism and awareness about the gender issues in question. Our projects are often ongoing, spanning many years and expanding into new communities.
