In recent years, Ghana has faced significant pushback against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and more (LGBTQI+) rights, marked by stricter legal restrictions and widespread societal opposition. Similarly, progress on women’s rights has been slow, with inadequate policy implementation. Despite these challenges, various organisations and movements are actively countering these setbacks. This brief provides an overview of their activities and the broader socio-political context.
