Founded in Ghana by field epidemiologists and civic researchers, My Culture, My Life began with a basic observation: critical national policies were too often designed without grounded, localized evidence reflecting lived social realities.
Over the past decade, we evolved from localized community assessments into a trusted national think-tank, bridging primary demographic datasets with legislative drafting tables to protect vulnerable populations.
Our Vision and Strategic Pillars
We combine academic rigor with community partnerships to ensure evidence translates into measurable protections and public investment across Ghana.
A Just, Data-Led Society
Evidence That Drives Reform
A thriving Ghana where equitable social policy, universal public health access, and gender parity are sustained through transparent evidence and inclusive civic participation.
To generate rigorous primary datasets, facilitate multi-stakeholder advocacy, and assist policymakers in enacting legislation that protects human dignity and equal opportunity.

Our nine trustees provide fiduciary guidance, methodological rigor, and strategic alignment across Ghanaian public policy, law, and scientific research.
