Preliminary Visit to Bunkpurugu

This weekend, the BA team paid a preliminary visit to Bunkpurugu in the Bunkpurugu-Yunyoo district of Northern Ghana to meet key stakeholders and set the stage for the assessment of reunited children in the District. The highly successful trip saw the team engage the District Community Development Officer and the CEO of Community Based Care for Orphans and Vulnerable Children.

The team had an understanding of the work of the various stakeholders in the reintegration of the children. The team also had the opportunity to visit the institution that previously housed the over 150 children and to talk to the proprietress. In the following weeks, the team will be visiting each of these children with their families to interact with them and assess their lives back in society. Watch this space for more updates...
