  • Challenging heights is a non-governmental organization in Ghana protecting the rights of children and focusing their anti-trafficking efforts in the fishing and cocoa industry. According to Challenging Heights, over 24,000 children in Ghana fall victim to the worst forms of child labour annually. Challenging Heights aim is to end Child Trafficking in the next 5 years through Rescue & Recovery, Prevention, and Advocacy. Rescue & Recovery- Challenging Heights conduct a number of rescue missions each year, rescuing dozens of children. Through tips from community members, they identify children who have been trafficked to Lake Volta. Once they have a list of trafficked children to be rescued, they go to Lake Volta, and rescue them from modern slavery. They are then brought to the Challenging Heights Hovde House. Prevention- In order for them to address child trafficking, they must think about the root causes. They have identified poverty, naivety, and family separation as the main three root causes. Through donations and grants, they have created a number of programs that they believe will help improve the lives of the people in the community. * Women Economic Empowerment Programme (WEEP) * Youth Empowerment Programme (YEP) * Child Development Khazanas (CDKs) * Community Child Protection Committees (CCPCs) * Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Advocacy-Challenging Heights works to change policies and practices in source communities, throughout Ghana, and globally. This advocacy work looks like sensitisation campaigns, lobbying for national policy, and consulting for the development of international guidelines. They are a community based that educates the citizens about Child Trafficking and Human Rights. * Community Sensitisation * Promoting Children's Rights * Partnering with Anti-Trafficking NGOs * Research and Best Practices * Partners in Development (en)
