Capacity
Building
Training and technical assistance have
been designed to address:
- The need to strengthen women's rights
groups within their communities as well as at the
national, sub-regional, regional and international
levels.
- The need to adopt more appropriate
participatory methods of rights education within the
context of varied development processes at all levels.
- The need for organisations to network,
co-ordinate strategies and build a strong women's
constituency at all levels.

WiLDAF-Ghana
has also trained judicial and non-judicial actors in
the promotion and protection of the rights of women
under a three-year European Union funded project that
ended in 2004. Training workshops held for Judges, Lawyers,
the Police, Medical Personnel and Traditional Leaders
under the project yielded positive results.
Ghana law schools have agreed to begin
incorporating women’s rights information into
seminars for prosecutors as well as for career magistrates.
