Purpose

Inform, Inspire & Empower Communities

Enviral GH is a Ghana-based nonprofit transforming environmental health challenges into viral stories that inspire change. We focus on underreported issues like informal e-waste recycling, blending science with storytelling to spark action.
Our flagship campaign is centered on Agbogbloshie, one of the world’s most toxic e-waste sites. We push for accountability under the Basel Convention while raising awareness through forums, films, and storytelling.
One of our most impactful initiatives is the feasibility study for Ghana’s first formal e-waste recycling center — creating jobs, reducing toxic emissions, and reclaiming economic value.

Enviral GH’s Core Pillars

Fighting Pollution with Policy, People, and Purpose

Environmental Health Advocacy

Enviral GH raises awareness about overlooked environmental health crises, especially in low-income communities. We focus on harmful impacts like those caused by informal e-waste recycling and push for public health protections.

E-Waste Pollution Research

We conduct scientific studies on pollution from electronic waste in places like Agbogbloshie. Our data-driven approach helps quantify toxic exposures and supports policy and infrastructure solutions.

Storytelling for Social Change

We transform scientific findings and community voices into compelling stories that inspire action. This approach makes complex environmental issues accessible and emotionally engaging for broad audiences.

Policy Advocacy and Accountability

We hold governments and global actors accountable for environmental harm, especially through enforcement of treaties like the Basel Convention. Our work advocates for fair international practices and better local enforcement.

Community Education and Empowerment

We engage directly with affected communities to educate them on health risks and safer recycling methods. This builds local ownership and supports behavior change from the ground up.

Sustainable E-Waste Solutions

We promote the development of formal recycling facilities to replace dangerous informal methods. These facilities create jobs, recover valuable materials, and reduce environmental harm.

Global Awareness Campaigns

We lead media and advocacy campaigns to expose environmental injustices and push for global responsibility. Real stories and visuals are used to mobilize international support.

Economic Opportunity Creation

By formalizing recycling, we aim to create skilled jobs and reduce Ghana’s reliance on imported materials. E-waste is reframed as a resource, not just a hazard.

Long-Term Health Monitoring

We conduct and support health studies to measure long-term effects of toxic exposure on recyclers and nearby residents. This research informs safer practices and policy reforms.
