SPARK Social Enterprise Programme in Ghana

The SPARK Change-makers Project is recruiting its first cohort of young social entrepreneurs through the EU-Ghana Youth Empowerment Programme. Participants work on practical ways to grow a business or develop an idea that addresses a local problem.

• Be aged 18 to 35 and have a social enterprise or a business idea with clear community benefit.
• Live or operate in Greater Accra, Ashanti, Western, Volta, Northern or Upper East.
• Explain the problem you want to solve, who benefits and how you would put the idea into practice.

The project focuses on enterprise development, coaching and mentorship. Selection is competitive, and the announcement does not promise a cash award to every participant.

1. Prepare a short description of your idea or business and the community problem it addresses.
2. Fill out the official Cohort One application.
3. Submit by November 20, 2026, the deadline published by SOS Children’s Villages Ghana, and confirm the platform received the form.
