- Promoting Children and Youth Development through Partnership
History and Background
The YOVI Ghana LBG was founded in 2006 and was officially registered as a non-profit, youth-focused organization in 2009, having identified the numerous challenges facing young people in Ghana. The organization is headquartered in Tamale, the regional capital of the Northern Region, with a satellite office in Sang, the capital of the Mion District of the Northern Region.
YOVI Ghana LBG was founded by young people who showed concern for the plight of the rural population in the Northern Region of Ghana, especially the conditions of many youths, women, children, and persons with disabilities (PWDs), and pledged their commitment to work together to improve the prospects and opportunities of these vulnerable groups.
