The German Ambassador to Ghana, Daniel Krull, has advocated global support for the West African Science Ser­vice Centre on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL).

He said the inter-governmental organisation, headquartered in Accra, was playing a crucial role in the worldwide efforts to combat climate change through research, capacity building and innovation.

Mr Krull made the call on Tues­day when he hosted a networking dinner at his residence for some members of the diplomatic com­munity in Ghana to garner support for the WASCAL.

The guests were from the Eu­ropean Union (EU), United States (US), Canada, World Bank, Master­card Foundation and Ministry of Environment, Science, Technology and Innovation (MESTI).
