Editorial accountability

Helpful content should earn your trust.

This policy explains how wellbeing resources, guided exercises, campaign content and AI-assisted drafts move from idea to publication.

What every published resource should show

Accountable owner

An editorial owner and appropriate subject reviewer are recorded.

Review date

Publication and next-review dates are attached to the content record.

Source trail

Claims can be traced to current, appropriate references.

Clear limits

Educational content is distinguished from diagnosis, treatment and emergency care.

Accessible format

Plain language, transcripts, captions and alt text are considered.

Local context

Ghanaian and African context is reviewed rather than assumed.

Evidence levels

How sources are prioritised

A
Primary and authoritative

Legislation, public-health authorities, systematic reviews, clinical guidelines and original research.

B
Established professional guidance

Recognised professional bodies, academic centres and clearly referenced evidence summaries.

C
Context and lived experience

Community perspectives, interviews and practitioner experience, labelled as experience rather than clinical evidence.

D
Discovery only

General media, unsourced claims and AI output may suggest questions but do not substantiate health claims.

AI-supported drafting

AI may assist, but never approve

Human accountability remains with the named content owner and reviewer.
