Emergency support to Ewe Tribal People in the Volta Region

Volta Young Farmers Association (VYFA)

Within the Kpenoe and surrounding communities, it is the increasing prevalence of teenage pregnancy, exacerbated by COVID-19, that continues to worry the community. Schools were closed for about a year due to COVID restrictions, over this period some of these young girls became pregnant and now that schools have reopened, they are forced to drop out.

The VYFA in collaboration with the community leaders, would like to support as many of these young mothers and mothers to be, with a means of livelihood now that they have dropped out of school and face family demand.
