Ghana Scout Association, GSA, organized the Second phase of the Scouts in Entrepreneurship Project for thirty scouts from the eight (8) regions in Accra. The Second phase of the Scouts in Entrepreneurship Project was to equip scouts with practical skill training in the production of Antiseptic or disinfectant, liquid soap, hand sanitizers, bleach, and shower gel. The two days’ workshop was held from Saturday 7th August, 2021 to Sunday 8th August, 2021, at the Ghana Girls Guide training Centre. The training program was sponsored by Messengers of Peace (MOP). Mr. Shaibu Fuseini Fenteduah, the District Commissioner for Kintampo Municipality facilitated the second phase of the training program. Scouts were shown the needed ingredients and tools and were taken through the preparation of hand sanitizer, antiseptic or disinfectant, liquid soap, shower gel, and bleach. The Chief Commissioner, Deputy Chief Commissioner, Finance Commissioner, Membership Commissioner and Training Commissioner were in attendance for the training program. The Chief Commissioner, Mr. Louis Anopong Okyere, in his welcome address urged scouts to give the facilitator all the needed support and attention to help them gain such relevant skill.

However he expects scouts to use the skills acquired at the training to meet their economic needs.

Scouts in the Ashanti Region of Ghana created awareness on covid-19 in deprived communities. The awareness was to provide information on personal hygiene, social distancing as well as the effects of stigmatisation The sensitisation was in collaboration with the National Youth Authority in the region. The campaign created awareness in the youth about the preventive measures that one has to observe. Scouts spoke of the need to wash hand regularly under running water, sanitizing hands regularly especially when they change hands with money. They also emphasised the need for social distancing to avoid being infested and advised the youth to keep at least a distance at arm's length They urged the communities to desist from stigmatisation since it has greater psychological effect on people which could be long lasting. Ghana Scout Association is always grateful to its partners in this fight against covid-19.
