Dr. Angela Dwamena-Aboagye, Executive Director of the Ark Foundation, has cautioned that sexual violence is creating a significant public health crisis in Ghana. Survivors of sexual violence experience enduring hardships impacting their professional lives and interpersonal relationships. This violence imposes substantial costs on Ghana's public health system due to the long-term care required by survivors. The warning highlights the broad societal impact extending beyond the immediate trauma. Addressing sexual violence is therefore crucial not only for ethical reasons but also for economic and public health stability within Ghana. The situation at Obuasi SHTS serves as a focal point for addressing this nationwide issue.
