Members of the Sunyani Adolescents Parliament are set to visit the Parliament House of Ghana in Accra on December 18, 2025, as part of efforts to deepen their understanding of parliamentary processes and democratic governance.
The educational visit, which will involve all Members of the Sunyani Adolescents Parliament, will be led by the Chief Executive Officer of the Global Media Foundation (GLOMEF), Mr. Raphael Godlove Ahenu and Mr. Simon Asore, Executive Director of Citizens Watch Ghana, together with selected staff members of GLOMEF.
The trip is being funded by Fondation Botnar through Ecorys UK as part of the Resilient City for Adolescents project.
The visit is aimed at exposing the young parliamentarians to real-life parliamentary proceedings, including lawmaking, debates, and committee work. The adolescents are also expected to interact with parliamentary staff to gain insight into the roles and responsibilities of Members of Parliament.
Speaking at a short orientation session ahead of the visit, Mr. Edmond Gyebi, Communications Officer for GLOMEF, said the initiative seeks to build confidence, leadership skills, and civic awareness among young people, preparing them for future leadership and active citizenship.
Mr. Ayabilah Edward, Programmes Manager for GLOMEF, noted that the visit would further motivate the adolescents to become strong advocates for issues affecting children and adolescents within their communities.
The delegation is expected to return to Sunyani on Friday, December 19, 2025.
