The Christian Council of Ghana (CCG) has launched a policy brief to address child trafficking in Ghana. The launch brought together representatives of the United Nations Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) as well as some rescued children. The brief gives details of the findings of the work of the council for the past years with recommendations and an action plan. For instance, in 2006, a baseline survey conducted by the Ghana Christian Council in six selected communities in the Ga West and Dangme West Districts of the Greater Accra region revealed 124 children had been trafficked to various destinations in Ghana and its environs. The findings also revealed community members did not consider children engaged in so-called economic activities such as farming, carrying heavy loads for money (kayayei) and trading as hazardous to their health. According to them they needed the extra income to fend for the children themselves. A subsequent Baseline Survey by the Council also revealed Northern Ghana as the “supply zone” of child trafficking and southern Ghana as the “demand zone”. This according to the survey is largely due to the fact that the south is perceived well-endowed socio-economically as opposed to the north of the country. The study further revealed 81% of the community knew children who had been trafficked. On May 13 2011, the Daily Graphic reported the arrest of 28 men who had trafficked 116 children to be used as labor force along the Volta Lake. The Christian Council of Ghana believes such incidents attest to the existence of child trafficking perpetrators even though the situation seems otherwise. Mr. Iddris Abdallah, a Child Protection Specialist with UNICEF said even though some headway had been made with regard to educating the child, other issues such as discrimination, neglect and separation prevention remain unresolved. According to him, a survey conducted last year revealed there are 60,000 street children on the streets of Accra alone. Rev. Dr. Fred Deegbe, General Secretary of the Christian Council of Ghana urged government to consider the policy recommendations in the brief and engage the various stakeholders in its implementation.
