The Association of Church Development Projects in Northern Ghana was formed in 1977, known then as the Association of Church
Agricultural Projects (CAP), a loose association of Church Agricultural Projects. The membership soon expanded beyond the
agricultural stations to include other church rural development work such as the water projects, health, nutrition and primary
health care, gender and development, and rehabilitation of the blind. To reflect the diverse nature of the network the name
was changed in 1988 to the Association of Church Development Projects (ACDEP).
ACDEP is an ecumenical network of largely, but not only, church sponsored development NGOs in Northern Ghana.
Main Objective
The main objective of ACDEP is to further the development efforts of the individual churches. It is also to provide a
collective platform for the participation of churches in the socio-economic development of Northern Ghana as a whole and the
rural poor in particular.
Our Vision
Sustainable socio-economic development of the people in northern Ghana through an effective network of church-based
institutions and other relevant partners.
Our Mission
To strengthen the development initiatives of churches and provide a collective platform for participation of churches
