Accra, Ghana — World Vision Ghana on Monday unveiled a refreshed five-year strategy titled "Hope for Every Child," aiming to reach 2.8 million children across 43 districts and 14 regions by 2028. The strategy, presented by National Director Tina Mukunda and senior leadership, emphasizes child protection, education, health, participation and resilience.
Mukunda described the strategy as the product of extensive consultation, research and validation, designed to respond to evolving vulnerabilities among Ghanaian children. "We are a child‑focused organization," she said, noting that the strategy seeks to ensure every child is loved, educated, healthier, protected and able to participate in community life.
The plan rests on four pillars: impact, funding, operational excellence, and people, learning and growth. Leadership highlighted the primacy of programmatic impact and sustainable financing. To address declining international aid, World Vision Ghana will pursue innovative funding instruments, including intensified local fundraising and blended finance models, while diversifying income sources.
Operational excellence and accountability are central to implementation, the organization said, with investments planned in organizational efficiency and transparent stewardship. The strategy also commits to talent development, capacity building and staff resilience to safeguard delivery quality.
Partnerships feature prominently in the new strategy. World Vision Ghana intends to deepen collaboration with government, private sector actors, development partners, faith institutions and communities to co‑create solutions, avoid duplication and scale impact across multiple sectors aligned with Ghana’s national development priorities and the Sustainable Development Goals.
The organization called for collective action, urging government, businesses, donors and civil society to join the effort to address child poverty and vulnerability. "When you are many, you can move far," Tina Mukunda said, underscoring the organization’s appeal for coordinated resource mobilization and joint accountability to secure long‑term gains for Ghana’s children.
