Eight Ghanaian research and development projects have been awarded €2 million to enhance the local production of medicines, vaccines, and diagnostics through the Vax and Pharma-Ghana initiative. The grants, jointly funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development and the European Union, are aimed at bridging the gap between scientific research and commercial manufacturing.
The Minister of Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, emphasized that this initiative is crucial for health security and pharmaceutical industrialization, highlighting that local production is vital in light of recent global health emergencies and supply chain disruptions. The PharmaVax Ghana Programme, which received 43 proposals, will provide technical assistance, networking opportunities, and knowledge exchange to strengthen research capacity and support commercialization.
