It is with immense pride and gratitude that we announce the Ministry of Education’s recognition as the best in the Education Service Category by the UAE Government at the 2024 GOVTECH Prize, a distinguished highlight of the World Government Summit.
This prestigious accolade honours the outstanding success of the Ghana Education Outcomes Project (GEOP) in reintegrating 17,340 Accelerated Learning Programme (ALP) learners into mainstream schools and enhancing learning gains through innovative interventions in one year.
Out of over 1000 applicants in the Education Service Category this year, our Ministry emerged victorious, showcasing the impactful work being carried out in collaboration with GEOP, an additional funding project under the Ghana Accountability Learning Outcomes Project (GALOP).
This recognition reaffirms His Excellency The President of the Republic of Ghana Nana Addo Dankwa Akuffo Addo’s commitment to fostering equitable and inclusive education, particularly by reintegrating children into mainstream education.
Furthermore, He expressed his sincere appreciation to the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) for their funding, the World Bank for their technical assistance and project management, the Education Outcomes Fund (EOF) Team for their conceptualization of the outcomes-based design, and our esteemed service providers – Ghana TransformED Partnership, School for Life Rising Education Outcomes Partnership, and Plan International, Ghana – for their innovative interventions.
Together, let us continue our journey towards a brighter, more inclusive future for all Ghanaian children.
