ACDEP is the largest and most experienced NGO and rural development agency in Northern Ghana. We are looked up to by government and NGOs in the region as a pioneer, a pace-setter and an important partner in the socio-economic development of the region. Please take time to look at our brochure.
Starting as a loose informal gathering of church development professionals for the purpose of sharing experiences, ACDEP has gradually transformed itself (based largely on a process of continuous assessment of relevance and cautious growth) to provide a forum and a framework to enable and manage collaboration between our 40+ member NGO’s and government and other non-governmental organizations. The Secretariat can effectively act as single point of access to 40+ NGO’s providing services across 800+ communities right across the 3 northern regions of Ghana as well as to a wide variety of the other actors in the broader communities we serve.
The Secretariat’s Specific Objectives:
- To bring all ACDEP member projects together for the purpose of sharing experiences.
- To improve the knowledge and skills of field staff through educational tours, workshops, and in-service training.
- To develop and demonstrate alternative development strategies to reaching, benefiting and empowering the rural poor.
