Based in Tema, the Action on Africa woman foundation Ghana is a community-driven non-governmental organisation dedicated to achieving gender equality and fostering local empowerment. The foundation focuses on the socio-economic advancement of women, youth, and children, providing pathways for talent development and employment. By participating in this high-level forum, the foundation aims to highlight the intersection of grassroots community development and international trade, demonstrating how local capacity building is essential for sustainable global economic growth.
Nana Kumasah Krampah II brings a unique perspective to the forum, combining 19 years of experience in humanitarian development with his responsibilities as a traditional ruler. As the Omankrado of the Gomoa Asempanyi and a Divisional Omankrado in the Central Region of Ghana, he bridges the gap between traditional leadership and modern policy participation. His work has consistently promoted agricultural investment and the adoption of green energy technologies, such as solar power and liquefied petroleum gas, within local communities to improve quality of life and economic sufficiency.
The foundation’s attendance is particularly relevant as global trade discussions increasingly focus on inclusive growth and the participation of emerging markets. The Action on Africa woman foundation Ghana has established a track record of facilitating international cooperation, notably through academic partnerships that connect Ghanaian students with institutions such as Acharya University in India. This commitment to developing a globally competitive workforce through education and practical learning aligns with the forum’s objectives of enhancing export growth and trade transparency across diverse regions.
Our participation in this forum is a deliberate step toward integrating local Ghanaian economic potential with the wider international trade landscape. We believe that empowering women and youth through targeted skill acquisition is not merely a social objective but a fundamental requirement for building resilient supply chains and sustainable markets.
By engaging with global trade leaders in London, we intend to identify new avenues for cross-border cooperation that respect local contexts while embracing international standards of transparency and excellence. This is an opportunity to advocate for sustainable investment that directly benefits the productive capacity of the Central Region and the nation at large.
Following the forum, the foundation will continue its advocacy efforts on the global stage, having already secured accreditation for major upcoming international summits including the UN 2025 Ocean Conference. As a signatory of the UN Global Compact Principles, the organisation remains committed to ethical development and the promotion of clean energy solutions. The insights gained during the London programme are expected to inform the foundation’s ongoing strategies for poverty reduction and the advancement of gender equality within Ghana and the broader West African region.
