Keeping Atewa's waters flowing
Illegal mining, cocoa expansion and roads threaten the Atewa Range — the source of drinking water for millions. A Rocha Ghana combines science, community organising and quiet persistence to keep this forest standing.
Through Nature’s Heartbeat they receive flexible support to respond when threats escalate, not only when a project plan says they may.
