Ghana is taking steps to strengthen its capacity to conduct and oversee high-quality clinical trials. This follows an assessment of 15 public and private research and health institutions supported by the World Health Organization and the National Vaccine Institute, with funding from the European Union-funded Vax & Pharm Initiative. The assessment began with a three-day capacity-building workshop that brought together representatives from the 15 institutions, including women scientists, research leaders and private sector representatives. Strengthening these institutions can help Ghana accelerate health innovation, improve preparedness for health emergencies and expand access to safe and effective health technologies.
