The German Development Cooperation has commemorated World Health Day under the theme: “Two years of Covid-19 management in Ghana: Lessons and Interventions towards a better Ghana.”
As a provider of international cooperation services, GIZ on behalf of the German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development has taken the lead role to support vaccine manufacturing in Ghana through a development roadmap intended to transform the country into a Pan-African Vaccine Manufacturing hub.
The team leader for health development at GIZ Ghana, Dr. Holger Till said his outfit is supporting Ghana in its development in general (government, energy and economic development).
"Since one and half years, we secured some fundings through the German government to partner directly with the National Vaccine committee headed by Professor Frimpong Boateng and we are accompanying the committee in its training to support the domestic vaccine productions" he said in an interview.
World Health Day is celebrated every April 7 and aims to bring awareness to certain global issues. Every year the World Health Organisation picks one issue to focus on.
