Vice President Professor Jane Naana Opoku-Agyemang attended the closing sessions of the Norman E. Borlaug International Dialogue. Delivering the keynote address, She mentioned that Dr. Norman Borlaug, who was convinced that no child should go to bed hungry, must remain a moral compass for us.

Another initiative is the Grow24 Programme. As part of the 24 Hour Economy, Grow24 seeks to modernize agriculture and value chains, support agro-manufacturing, and drive export-ready agribusiness.
