About us

Lead For Ghana is a leadership development and network organization curating a nationwide movement of solution-driven leaders expanding educational opportunities to all children in Ghana. We recruit Ghana's most promising recent university graduates and young professionals from varied disciplines to lead, teach, and learn from underserved communities through a highly selective, two-year leadership development fellowship. The Lead For Ghana fellowship is an experiential leadership development program that equips fellows to effect change in teaching practice, school and community culture, and educational outcomes in the communities we serve. After the fellowship, alumni of the program build on their community and classroom teaching experience to drive long-term systemic changes in the educational sector in Ghana as they progress into leadership roles in their varied private and public sector professions.

    Celebrating The Power of Teachers On occasion of World Teachers’ Day, here’s a heartfelt message from our CEO and Co-Founder Daniel Dotse: “Dear Fellows, I want to take a moment to truly celebrate and honor the incredible impact each of you is making in the lives of students across Ghana. Your dedication, passion, and unwavering commitment to your students shine brightly, and today, we pause to recognize and appreciate all you do. Being a teacher is not just a profession—it’s a profound calling to inspire, nurture, and empower the next generation. At Lead For Ghana, we are privileged to be part of a community of educators who, day after day, go above and beyond to ignite the minds of young people and pave the way for their future success. Each time you step into your classroom, you create a space where students feel safe, encouraged, and empowered to grow, explore, and realize their full potential. Even in the face of challenges, your resilience and creativity never waver. You continue to adapt, guiding your students not just to academic achievements, but to become confident, well-rounded individuals ready to take on the world. At Lead For Ghana, we believe that education is the most powerful tool for solving societal problems and creating equal opportunities. You, as teachers, are the architects of a brighter future. In underserved communities across the country, your work is laying the foundation for lasting change, bridging gaps, and opening doors to a world of possibilities for the children you serve. I am continuously inspired by your stories—stories of perseverance, innovation, and heart. You are not just teaching subjects; you are shaping lives. You give more than knowledge—you offer hope, build confidence, and inspire dreams. As mentors, role models, and pillars of your communities, you are planting seeds of greatness that will blossom for generations to come. For this, I am deeply grateful. On this World Teachers' Day, I want to say thank you. Thank you for your invaluable contributions to education. Together, we are creating a future where every child has access to an excellent education, regardless of their background. Here’s to you—the heroes in and out of the classroom. Thank you for being the heart of Lead For Ghana. Thank you for being the difference. With deep gratitude, Daniel” #GoAheadLead #WorldTeachersDay

    FEATURE FRIDAY We are thrilled to spotlight Ebenezer Kupualor, a member of the Lead For Ghana Leadership Network, and a dedicated educator whose journey from a Lead For Ghana Fellow to a full-time mathematics teacher is nothing short of inspiring! Starting his fellowship in 2017 at Gumani Methodist Junior High School in Northern Ghana, Ebenezer overcame numerous challenges to improve not only the school’s infrastructure - like establishing its first-ever computer lab - but also the lives of his students. His passion for teaching goes beyond academics; it's about nurturing minds, building relationships, and inspiring a love for learning. Today, Ebenezer continues his teaching journey at The Roman Ridge School while remaining committed to bridging the gap between rural and urban education in Ghana. Want to know more about Ebenezer’s incredible impact? Read his full story in this week’s newsletter!
