In Ghana, the two major religious bodies are: Christianity, forming 71.2%; and Islam, with 17.6% of the population. Apparently, there is no community leader who comes anywhere close to being able to influence their members as the religious leaders do on a weekly basis. My project aims to build sustainable partnerships with these religious societies in Ghana through an action campaign dubbed, “Total Cleanliness: A Prerequisite to Worship”, which will constantly call on the attention of members of these religious groups to relevant everyday practices that can enhance and increase fullness of life. Regional meetings and workshops will be held with these religious leaders across all the 10 regions in Ghana, to officially launch the campaign and as well; train, engage and establish with them routine sessions of the campaign during worship hours and as well, persistently advocate for its adoption as a national policy in the country.
