The Invitational Programme for Policy Makers under the Korea-Ghana Heritage Project has come to a close in the Republic of Korea, following two weeks of training from 13th to 24th July 2026.
Through lectures, policy discussions, and visits to heritage conservation sites, the Ghanaian delegation worked alongside Korean heritage experts to lay the foundation for a Heritage and Climate Change Policy that will strengthen Ghana’s efforts in the conservation and preservation of Ghana’s Forts and Castles World Heritage Property.
The programme’s closing ceremony was graced by Hon. Abla Dzifa Gomashie, Ghana’s Minister for Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Ambassador Choi Ko Jo, Ghana’s Ambassador to Korea, and Prof. Osman Tahidu Damba, Ag. Secretary-General of the Ghana Commission for UNESCO.
The Ghana Commission for UNESCO extends its gratitude to the Republic of Korea for this valuable collaboration and looks forward to the next phase of the project, as both countries work together to safeguard Ghana’s coastal heritage from the growing threat of climate change.
