The Deputy Minister for Education, Dr Clement Apaak, has commended the launch of the BORDER Project initiative by World Vision.
According to him, the initiative is a timely and transformative effort aimed at uplifting vulnerable border communities through access to essential services, including education, health, water, agriculture, and peacebuilding. "As Deputy Minister for Education, I am particularly encouraged by the project's focus on resilience and inclusion-two pillars that are essential not only for development but also for the delivery of equitable and quality education across Ghana," Dr.
Apaak stated. "In Ghana's northern border regions, many children-especially those in refugee and host communities-continue to face severe barriers to education.
These include inadequate school infrastructure, lack of water and sanitation facilities, food insecurity, and, in some cases, instability that disrupts learning and attendance.
