ABOUT US
Berecons Development Initiative (BDI) is a community-centred non-profit humanitarian organisation of Ghanaian origin established to tackle social development and a range of human security-related issues across the African continent.
BDI emerged from the erstwhile Beyond Research and Consulting (BR&C), now Berecons Group, in November 2021, officially registering under Ghana’s Companies Act 2019 (Act 992) four months later. It is the development arm of the Group’s multidisciplinary consultancy firm, Berecons LLC, collaborating across sectors to address diverse social development challenges. Notably, twenty percent of the proceeds from the firm’s projects are dedicated to supporting BDI’s operations, ensuring resilience even during challenging times.
What began as a singular entity has transformed into multiple branches, a driving force behind collective aspirations for positive regional change in human well-being and progress.
"The costs of providing comprehensive education to underserved populations, making information free, available, and accessible to everyone, and conducting scientific research to supplement global efforts, will always be resources well spent."
