PYWC believes that,  for all young people in Ghana, they face key challenges in making the transition from childhood to adulthood, from dependence to independence. They need to negotiate their way through a web of relationships and across a range of obstacles to become confident, active and fulfilled members of society. They need to be involved to their own development, and to contribute to their own communities and wider society.For many, this generation is more affluent and has greater opportunities than any previous generation. For others, the tremendous economic growth of recent years has led to greater inequalities that disadvantage them in education, the workplace and in their social lives.
