Giving For Change Project In Ghana The Giving for change Project is a five (5) year project which begins from 2021 to 2025. It is funded by Giving for Change Alliance (GfCA) which is spearheaded by an international Consortium consisting of the Global Fund for Community Foundations (GFCF), Africa Philanthropy Network (APN), Kenya Community Development Foundation (KCDF) and Wilde Ganzen (WG). 
The GfC programme sets out a bold vision for transforming how ‘‘development is done’’. The main goal is community and domestic philanthropy; recognizing that communities do not only have issues but assets as well which can be used to build the power and voice of communities. The objective of this project is to influence how development work is done by focusing on 3 elements; increasing local ownership, unlocking agency, strengthening communities to claim entitlements from different actors, especially the government.
The GfC project is being implemented in eight countries globally, including, Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Mozambique, Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Brazil and Palestine.
In Ghana, STAR-Ghana Foundation is the lead organization and WACSI is the key partner

The Giving for Change (GFC) Project seeks to promote domestic resources mobilization and philanthropy as a strategy for increasing local ownership and influencing civic action for inclusive development. The project is anchored on the recognition of the importance of domestic resources in increasing local ownership, unlocking agency, and strengthening communities’ ability to claim their civic and fundamental rights.

She Leads Programme  Liberia  (2021-2025) In all She Leads countries, girls and young women, particularly GYW from socially excluded and exploited groups, are denied the opportunity to voice their interests and to participate meaningfully in decision-making processes. While many countries have made impressive strides in, for example, GYW’s access to education and the introduction of new laws against GBV, their socio-political participation continues to be much lower than that of boys and young men. Within the population of girls and young women (between age 14 till 24 years of age), there are specific groups of GYW in She Leads countries who suffer most from (intersectional) discrimination and exclusion.
She Leads is a joint programme of Plan International Netherlands, Defence for Children - ECPAT the Netherlands (DCI-ECPAT), African Women’s Development and Communication Network (FEMNET), and Terre des Hommes the Netherlands (TdH). Equal Measures 2030 is a technical partner. The She Leads consortium brings together child rights organisations, feminist/women’s rights organisations, and GYW-led groups and aims to increase sustained influence of girls and young women (GYW) on decision-making and the transformation of gender norms in formal and informal institutions. The long-term aim (impact) of She Leads is that GYW’s perspectives are included in gender responsive laws and policies and societal norms and practices. The strategic objective is to increase the sustained influence of GYW on decision-making and the transformation of gender norms in formal and informal institutions.

Central to the She Leads programme is the enhancement of collective action of girls and young women in a gender-responsive civil society (civil society domain), support by increased acceptance of positive social gender norms (socio-cultural domain) and by enabling meaningful participation of girls and young women in decision-making by political institutions (institutional domain). Girls and young women  (age 14 till 24) are the primary target group of the She Leads programme. Especially those that experience intersecting forms of discrimination and exclusion such as GYW living in poor, remot rural areas and urban slums, GYW experiencing GBV, GYW with different abilities, GYW who are out of school, GYW from sexual minority groups and refugees and internally displaced GYW. In addition, the programme works closely with CSO organisations and networks, (representatives of) formal institutions and community members and leaders.
