Maham ~ I am pleased to announce that today in London, we signed a landmark UK-Ghana Growth Partnership during the Ghana-UK Investment Summit, as a roadmap for 2026–2028. It aims to deliver tangible benefits for Ghanaians and businesses operating in our country.
Deals worth up to £215 million stand at the centre of our collaboration with the UK. By prioritising private-sector growth, infrastructure, and skills development for our youth, we aim to ensure they can compete globally.
A groundbreaking £101 million UK-backed initiative, part of the partnership, will create the Gulf of Guinea’s very first commercial-scale ship repair and dry-docking facility. Set to generate up to 430 direct jobs, including 30% reserved for women, the Takoradi Floating Dock Project will propel Ghana to the forefront of regional maritime hubs.
The Partnership is unlocking millions in climate-aligned infrastructure, propelling an £85 million reforestation fund and an exciting £9 million investment dedicated to forest restoration in the Oti Region. These transformative projects will generate local jobs and safeguard our environment.
Even more exciting, a £6 million partnership will support the implementation of the Ghana AI Strategy and energise science and technology collaboration across our universities.
In the health sector, our systems will be transformed by a £4 million partnership for specialist clinical engineering training. New Transnational Education guidelines will also be launched to open up outstanding opportunities for Ghanaian students to access world-class training.
