Shailyn Tirado, Head of Research for the Social Impact Awards shares the reasoning behind the decision to award Koranteng & Koranteng Legal Advisors these prestigious awards:
“Koranteng & Koranteng Legal Advisors was recognised at the 2025 Legal Benchmarking Group’s Social Impact EMEA Awards for its outstanding commitment to social mobility, with Managing Partner Afua Koranteng named Social Mobility Advocate of the Year for her visionary leadership.
Through the firm’s Career Day Talk initiative, Afua transformed a traditional CSR activity into a high-impact educational intervention aimed at breaking down barriers to the legal profession for underserved youth.
Personally conceptualized and led by Afua, the programme reached over 500 students at a public junior high school in Greater Accra, combining legal career guidance with civic education on constitutional rights and sustained mentorship from the firm’s associates. The initiative delivered measurable impact which boosted student engagement, motivation, and awareness, while embedding a lasting culture of service and inclusion within the firm. By aligning community outreach with national development and policy conversations, Koranteng & Koranteng demonstrated how legal leadership can create real pathways of opportunity, earning it Social Mobility Firm of the Year as well.”
