Agbodza calls for regeneration proposals as Agbogbloshie waste evacuation begins

The government of Ghana has commenced the removal of waste at Agbogbloshie, a move aimed at addressing sanitation challenges in the area. The exercise, led by the Ministry of Local Government with support from the Ministries of Finance, Roads and Highways, and Energy, is part of a broader strategy to transform the area through a structured regeneration programme.

In a call for action, Roads and Highways Minister Governs Kwame Agbodza has challenged professionals in the built environment, including the Ghana Institute of Architects, Ghana Institution of Engineering, and Planners, to develop proposals for the redevelopment of Agbogbloshie. The Minister hopes that these proposals, aligned with government policy, will guide the regeneration of the area.

The evacuation exercise is seen as a significant step towards improving the living conditions in the area and transforming it into a more sustainable and livable community.
