This morning, I received a call from a very senior official in the Office of the President.
The message was simple but significant: H.E. President John Dramani Mahama will personally officiate the launch of the Ghana National Research Fund (#GNRF) on 16 June 2026.
For decades, many of us have advocated for a predictable national mechanism to finance research, innovation, and knowledge creation in Ghana.
Institutions do not transform nations simply because they exist in law. They become transformative when leaders give them life, purpose, and national priority.
The President’s decision to personally launch the GNRF sends a powerful signal that research and innovation matter to Ghana’s future.
If you have received an invitation, kindly be seated at the Labadi Beach Hotel by 9:00 a.m. prompt.
History is about to be made.

With the little resources and a genuine heart to help, we can improve access to quality healthcare for rural communities.
If you are a young person starting your career, make it a point to ALWAYS make experience and not cash your priority. @NeipGhana @yawgyamfi @SocEnt_Africa
Compared with other developing countries, Ghana has a well-developed Primary Health Care infrastructure but the biggest challenge to improving access to PHC is poverty @GlobalBrigades @WHO @UNICEFinnovate @SocEnt_Africa @MoHGhana
Offering tomorrow's healthcare professionals the opportunity to experience at firsthand global health challenges will provide them with the right skills, creative confidence and the empathy to tackle our future health needs @WHO @GlobalBrigades @UNICEFGhana @SocEnt_Africa
Rural small and micro-enterprises can benefit immensely from a partnership that offers them the opportunity to work with smart young volunteers to design solutions to growth challenges #socent @MotiGhana #businesstraining @UNIDO @NeipGhana @OneDOneF @Ghana
Drumming and dancing are integral to Ghanaian culture and #GlobalBrigades volunteers in Ghana get the opportunity to experience the best of it. @MOTACGhana @ghanatourismGTA @UNESCO @Changemakers
A quiet moment at the beach can also be an opportunity to think through teething business challenges. #SocEnt @CSI_Ghana @yawgyamfi
Am in Ghana to listen to what people of Africa especially the youth want from a partnership with Europe.
