Advancing Green Growth
Green Bliss Foundation (GBF) is a Ghana-based nonprofit working across forest landscapes and rural communities to support climate resilience, sustainable livelihoods, and inclusive development. Whether it’s through business training, reforestation, or creating access to financial tools, our work centers on real people, practical skills, and lasting impact.
At Green Bliss Foundation (GBF), we believe that when women and youth are empowered, communities flourish—and our environment gets a second chance.
Our mission as an NGO is to protect and improve the lives of the vulnerable, as well as to restore our environment, through regulation, scientific knowledge, and collaboration.
Our values as an organization is to maintain high professionalism, trustworthiness, customer & stakeholder focus and collaboration.
At Green Bliss Foundation, we don’t just deliver projects—we grow movements.
We build leadership. We restore ecosystems. And we equip communities to take ownership of their futures.
From 2021 to 2024, the Global Shea Alliance, in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation’s Young Africa Works initiative, implemented the $5.7M Shea Business Empowerment Programme (SBEP) to transform the shea value chain in Ghana.
The programme created dignified and fulfilling work opportunities for 90,000 women (150 cooperatives) of which 30,000 were young women, and strengthened the operations of 300 SMEs.
SBEP removed barriers to growth through access to finance, business coaching, and digital tools. Young women, in particular, gained skills and confidence to lead.
By blending business training, environmental stewardship, and digital transformation, SBEP is unlocking the potential of rural women and youth to lead, earn, and grow. From financial services and warehousing support to creche pilots and digital market platforms, SBEP helped shea producers grow their businesses while improving their livelihoods and working conditions.
The Gender Responsive and Integrated Landscape Management Project (GRILMaP) is an initiative focused on tackling deforestation and climate vulnerability in Ghana’s forest communities, especially in the Ahafo Ano Hotspot Intervention Areas (HIAs).
Promoting sustainable forest management and community-driven governance through financial literacy, leadership training, and inclusive civic engagement.
Through GRILMaP,, women and youth have received training in practical livelihood empowerment skills like soap making, cocoa farming reinvestment, and financial literacy—enabling them to generate income, manage resources, and build more resilient livelihoods.
By combining climate-smart solutions with inclusive leadership and capacity building, GRILMaP is restoring landscapes and creating lasting change—from the ground up.
The Ghana Shea Landscape Emission Reductions Project (GSLERP) is a national initiative under Ghana’s REDD+ framework that brings together climate action and inclusive development across the northern savannah zone. It aims to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation while enhancing sustainable livelihoods in shea-producing communities—particularly for women, who are central to the shea value chain.
By focusing on restoring degraded Parklands & forest reserves, promoting sustainable land use, and improving access to markets, GSLERP is not only protecting forests but also creating meaningful economic opportunities. The project also supports Ghana’s climate adaptation goals and contributes to its commitments under the Paris Agreement.
Implemented by the Forestry Commission of Ghana, with support from the Green Climate Fund (GCF), UNDP, and the Global Shea Alliance, the project promotes sustainable land management, climate resilience, and gender-inclusive economic growth.
A key milestone under the project is the successful production and delivery of over 7.85 million high-quality seedlings, distributed across targeted communities for reforestation and parkland restoration. These seedlings—comprising Shea, Native and Agroforestry species—are helping to revive degraded Parklands & forest reserves, boost biodiversity, and enhance carbon sequestration
The Forestry Commission/Tullow REDD+ Programme (FTREDD+) is a landmark public-private partnership working to combat deforestation and reduce carbon emissions across 2 million hectares in Ghana’s Bono and Bono East regions.
By restoring forest reserves and generating up to 1 million tonnes of certified carbon credits annually, the programme supports both Ghana’s climate goals and Tullow’s 2030 Net Zero ambitions.
FTREDD+ is more than a climate solution—it’s a growing movement where women, youth, and local leaders are driving change, strengthening livelihoods, and restoring ecosystems from the ground up.
