Ghana, Burkina Faso, and Côte d’Ivoire have launched a week-long series of meetings in Wa, Upper West Region, to enhance cross-border cooperation by harmonising and validating the legal framework for Local Groups for Cross-Border Cooperation (LGCBCs). The initiative aims to strengthen cooperation, promote dialogue, and facilitate joint action among communities and local-level actors along the common boundaries in the Savannah and Upper West Regions.
