Dr. Joyce Aryee, National NTD Ambassador and the Intra-Country Coordinating Committee (ICCC) for NTDs, convened a High-Level Private Sector Breakfast Meeting on 10 September 2026 at Fiesta Royal Hotel, Accra.
The engagement brought together representatives, CEOs and seniors from Telecommunication companies, Ghana Chamber of Mines, Mining companies, pharmaceutical companies, Media organizations, Food processing industries, Oil and gas companies, Banking and financial institutions, development partners and technical experts to strengthen collaboration and mobilize sustainable support towards NTD elimination in Ghana by 2030.
Discussions highlighted the critical role of the private sector through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), sustainable financing, innovation, technology, expertise and in-kind support to strengthen NTD interventions and reduce their social and economic impact.
Ghana has made significant progress, including the elimination of trachoma, Guinea worm and sleeping sickness as public health problems. Sustaining these gains, however, requires continued national ownership and collective action.
The engagement therefore provided an important platform for Corporate Ghana to identify practical areas of support, strengthen public-private partnerships and translate commitment into action towards a Ghana free from NTDs.
Together, let us unite, act and eliminate Neglected Tropical Diseases. ๐๐ค๐
