About Human Rights Advocacy Centre, Ghana

The Human Rights Advocacy Centre (HRAC) is a not-for-profit, independent, non-partisan, research and advocacy Organization set up to advance and protect human rights in Ghana. Established and situated in Accra, the capital town of Ghana since 2008, the Organisation is a household name across Ghana due to the wide coverage of its services across the nation. The HRAC was established by Nana Oye Lithur, the former Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection who is an ardent human rights advocate. She conceived the vision to set up the Organisation during her tenure of office as the Head of the African regional branch of the Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI).
