British High Commission hosts high-level forum to accelerate development in Northern Ghana
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The British High Commission to Ghana has taken a bold step in fostering development in Northern Ghana by convening a high-level meeting with key stakeholders including regional ministers and international development partners.

The discussion held on Thursday at the University for Development Studies (UDS), focused on addressing the unique challenges and opportunities within the region.

The Northern Regional Minister, Ali Adolf John, underscored the importance of collaborative efforts in driving sustainable development.

In his address, he highlighted the government’s commitment to rolling out policies aimed at reducing poverty, enhancing social development and accelerating economic growth.

“Northern Ghana is rich in potential, but to fully harness it, we must work together to address critical challenges. The government remains committed to modernizing agriculture, expanding educational access, improving infrastructure, and ensuring peace and security,” Adolf John stated.

Adolf John outlined four fundamental pillars that will shape the development agenda for Northern Ghana.

  1. Agriculture and Agribusiness: The government aims to modernize agriculture through initiatives such as farmer service centres, farm banks and expanded irrigation facilities. “A thriving agriculture sector means food security, job creation and economic stability,” he added.
  • Education and Skills Development: With a strong emphasis on human capital, the government is working to expand quality education, vocational training and technical skills development. “Our youth need the right skills to compete in today’s world, and we are dedicated to ensuring they receive the best training possible,” the Minister emphasized.
  • Infrastructure Development: Key areas of focus include improving roads, expanding energy access and enhancing digital connectivity. These measures, Adolf John explained, are crucial for fostering economic activity and regional integration.
  • Peace and Security: Recognising that development cannot thrive in an unstable environment, the Minister stressed the importance of resolving long-standing conflicts and strengthening community-based security initiatives. “Security and stability are prerequisites for progress,” he noted.

The minister called on international development partners to align their initiatives with the government’s priorities.

“We need your expertise, resources and innovative solutions to overcome these challenges and unlock Northern Ghana’s full potential,” he urged.

The meeting, attended by regional ministers from Upper East, Northern, Savannah, North East and Upper West, provided a platform for each minister to present the specific challenges and opportunities within their regions. Key issues discussed included agricultural development, peace and security, education, skills training and infrastructure expansion.

The forum served as a crucial step toward strengthening collaboration between the new government and international development partners. British High Commissioner to Ghana, Harriet Thompson, emphasized the significance of such partnerships in advancing regional growth.

“Northern Ghana holds immense potential. Through collaboration, we can support initiatives that will transform lives and foster sustainable development,” she remarked.

As discussions continue, stakeholders are optimistic that the commitments made during this meeting will translate into concrete actions that will drive growth and prosperity in Northern Ghana. The forum marks a renewed effort to ensure that no region is left behind in Ghana’s development agenda.
