Farm Radio Ghana is excited to support the Enhancing the Competitiveness of Rice Production, Processing and Marketing in Ghana project.
Through our interactive radio approach, we'll connect rice farmers and other value chain actors with practical, timely information to improve farming practices, expand market opportunities, and build resilience.
By making knowledge accessible through radio, we aim to help increase productivity, strengthen livelihoods, and contribute to a more competitive and resilient rice sector in Ghana.

Last year, students from the Ashongman Cluster of Schools planted trees as part of Green Ghana Month. One year on, many of those seedlings are thriving—a powerful reminder that restoring our environment doesn't end with planting a tree; it begins with caring for it.

Inspired by the success of last year's exercise, the Headmaster invited Farm Radio Ghana and its partners to return and continue the initiative. Together, students once again rolled up their sleeves to plant more trees, reinforcing their commitment to protecting the environment and creating a greener future.

As part of Ghana's annual Green Ghana Month campaign, Farm Radio Ghana, in partnership with WUSC Ghana and Social Enterprise Ghana, was proud to support this initiative by engaging young people in practical environmental action.

The activity is part of Farm Radio Ghana's commitment to advancing nature-based solutions that restore ecosystems and build community resilience to climate change. By engaging young people in practical environmental action, it also supports the objectives of the Tree for Life Restoration Initiative, led by the Ministry of Lands and Natural Resources-Ghana and implemented through the Forestry Commission, to restore degraded landscapes, promote environmental stewardship, and inspire collective action for a greener, more climate-resilient Ghana.

Whose voices shape the future of international development?

This week, our Head of Just Communication, Benjamin Kojo Fiafor, will join experts from across the Global Majority at the Repairing International Development Conference to explore a critical question: How can we rethink development by putting communities at the centre?

Benjamin will contribute to a panel discussion on “Food Systems, Culture & Re-educating the Sector with the Language of Repair,” where he’ll share insights on the role of communication in transforming food systems.

At Farm Radio International, we know that lasting change doesn’t happen for communities—it happens with them. When farmers and rural communities have access to information, opportunities to share their knowledge, and a voice in the decisions that affect them, they become drivers of their own development.

This invitation-only conference brings together development leaders from the Global Majority to challenge traditional development approaches and showcase the power of community-driven solutions.

We’re proud to be part of this important conversation and look forward to the ideas and partnerships that will help shape a more inclusive future.
