  "account": "Organisers of the 2026 Skrive Foundation Open Essay Competition have emphasized the necessity of integrating practical skills into Ghana's education system. During the awards ceremony, finalists argued that classroom knowledge should be applied to real-world situations, indicating a recognition of the importance of both theoretical knowledge and practical application. Guest speaker Emmanuel Nikoi stressed that education should enable students to understand concepts and apply them to real-life challenges, rather than simply choosing between theory and practicals. The competition received 372 essays from students across 14 regions of Ghana, aged 14 to 30, and was judged based on insightful argumentation, writing, evidence, and creativity. Skrive Foundation, which promotes literacy and creativity among young Ghanaians, plans to launch Skrive Designs as a 2027 project focused on sewing, fashion, and textile art.",
