18% of Ghanaians live in extreme poverty, and the region of Volta is one of the poorest in the country. As a result, people living in Volta struggle with low literacy rates, low school enrolment, few economic opportunities, and poor access to health facilities and clean drinking water.
In spite of these hardships, there are a lot of reasons to be optimistic about Volta. It is home to some dynamic young leaders who are working hard to bring about real change.
One of these young leaders is Jenifer, who is the leader of a community-run youth club that meets once a week. The club discusses issues like peer pressure, adolescent development, and the environment.
