The Government has launched the One Million Coders Programme, a nationwide initiative aimed at training one million young Ghanaians in essential digital and coding skills to prepare them for the demands of the global digital economy.
The launch event, which took place in Accra and simultaneously across four satellite stations across the country, brought together key stakeholders from the tech industry, academia, development partners, and civil society, marking a major step in the government's commitment to building a digitally literate and future-ready workforce.
Speaking at the launch, Minister for Communications, Digital Technology and Innovation, Sam Nartey George, emphasised the urgency of digital transformation and the central role young people must play in it. "We are at a defining moment in Ghana's digital journey - a moment that is not only necessary but urgent.
This is a call to action to transform our economy, create sustainable jobs, and invest boldly in our people," he said.
