Thank you Mines Action Canada for supporting and funding our project at Chiana SHS in the Upper East Region, Ghana! With your help, we educated students on landmines, cluster munitions, and how they can prevent their impact in Ghana.

Before our campaign at Chiana SHS, almost all students had never heard of landmines or cluster munitions, and only a few knew anything about them. By the end, the students gained a strong understanding and were ready to share what they learned with their friends and communities.

Students at Chiana SHS didn’t just learn about landmines and cluster munitions, they explored ways to prevent their impact in Ghana. From raising awareness in their schools to educating their communities, they are taking action to create a safer future!

We are so excited to be at this summit and co-sponsoring with Nuclear Age Peace Fn ICAN IPPNWCanada Mines Action Canada Project Ploughshares simmonsfoundation canada and Marilou McPhedran
