When non-literate girls, women and men learn to read and write it will improve the quality of their work and life. Women in Ghana are generally enterprising, they are the backbone of the informal sector as they contribute the biggest to the economy of Ghana. However, many of these women are non-educated and lacked access to support systems such as non-formal education. The Nabdam Literacy School aims to fill this gap.

Restorative Seed Society (RSS) plans to replicate the successful Bolgatanga Literacy School initiative for women and girls in Nabdam District. This is in response to the request of smallholder farmers and other women groups in the area. The objective is to help them improve the quality of their work and life. The school provides informal classes to improve numeracy skills, reading, speaking and writing skills, basic arithmetic skills as well as general entrepreneurship and reproductive health education. The students are involved in topics or subjects that are discussed in the school.

1500 non-literate girls and women and 500 men will have increased their income and improved their health conditions through basic literacy. They are small entrepreneurs  involved in local markets and small holder farming. Some examples of what the adult students will learn include managing their time effectively, reading simple labels, interacting better with customers, carrying out simple calculations related to their businesses.

Results from RSS first literacy school showed that a number of students work as office workers because now they can read and write and some were admitted to for the National Vocational and Technical Institute exams, which allows graduates to work I governmental services like the police or fire services.
