The Sea Works at Night Project helps 50 vulnerable households in the coastal communities of Agavedzi, Salakorpe, and Amutinu in Ghana rebuild their livelihoods after devastating tidal waves destroyed homes, fishing equipment, and small businesses. Through livelihood support and child protection services, Friends of Adaklu and partners are helping caregivers regain income, stability, and hope, while protecting more than 300 children from risks like child labor, neglect, and school dropout.
Families in the coastal communities of Agavedzi, Salakorpe, and Amutinu in Ghana are struggling after repeated tidal waves destroyed homes, businesses, fishing equipment, and sources of income. Many caregivers who depended on fish mongering and salt mining can no longer support their families, leaving children at risk of dropping out of school. Without stable livelihoods, these vulnerable households face ongoing poverty, displacement, and uncertainty about their future.
This project will support 50 vulnerable caregiver households by helping them restart reliable livelihoods such as fish mongering and salt mining. Caregivers will also receive business management training to improve income tracking and sustainability. By restoring household income and stability, families will be better able to provide for their children, helping ensure children remain in school and reducing the long-term impact of poverty and displacement.
The project will help vulnerable families rebuild stable livelihoods and reduce long-term dependence on emergency aid. By strengthening caregivers' businesses and helping children stay in school, the project will improve household resilience, protect children from risks linked to poverty, and create stronger, more self-sufficient coastal communities. Over 300 children and 50 households will benefit from improved stability and opportunity.
