In the heart of Ghana’s vibrant agricultural landscape lies a promise of growth, sustainability, and economic empowerment. As one of the country’s key sectors, agriculture not only fuels livelihoods but also serves as a cornerstone of national development. However, to harness its full potential, agricultural staff must be equipped with the right tools, knowledge, and skills. This is where the Ghana Agricultural and Agribusiness Platform (GhAAP) steps in, offering a transformative approach to training that is revolutionizing the industry.

GhAAP is also one of the initiatives under planting for food and Jobs 2 (PFJ.2).
