Ghana Fund Research and Development for the Economic Independence of Ghana
2023 Conference on Ghana’s Economy: Overview, Assessment, and Alternatives for Economic Independence.
What the conference is about?
The Ghana Fund conference on Ghana Framework for Private Sector Co-Operation in Building an Independent Economy is billed to run from 25th to 27th September 2023 at Alisa Hotel, Accra, Ghana. The theme for this year’s conference is “Ghana’s Economy: Overview, Assessment and Alternatives for Economic Independence”. The conference will create frank and real situational analysis of the state of the economy of Ghana to aid the programmatic development programmes and projects for private sector engagement in the realisation of the economic independence of the state beginning from the short- and medium-term.
This conference is a unique forum for serious, frank and development-minded persons, researchers, co-operators, planners, business persons, policy and law makers, and others interested in critical thinking and follow-up action to interrogate current economic situation of Ghana, and to determine strategic approaches to private sector approaches and actions for economic turn-around towards economic independence.
Intended to provide a strong distinctive economic model and private sector governance that are fundamentally different from traditional macro-economic performance arrangements, but largely support and enhance the overall economic development of the state.
Some of the key issues that the 2023 conference will attempt to find solutions to include:
- Matters of Taxation
- Frustrated financial sector regime
- The Cedi
- Statutorily induced draw-backs to business growth and development
- Employment
- Poverty, Food and Human Security
- Domestic financing through co-operative interventions
These issues are the trigger for innovative approaches to economic growth and sustainability, and the conference will progress beyond the mere policy paper production to identifying specific economic interventions and the production of specific directions, strategic and master plans for the effective engagement of both government and private sector in evolving a revolutionary process towards economic independence. The various expert groups will produce measurable and target-based practical solutions required for economic progress.
Participants in the conference will find the approaches quite different from the traditional conference programmes, because we have a special problem that requires a unique solution which the conference is intended to address fully.
