The present report on inclusive green growth in Ghana provides an account of the overall policy framework and mechanisms to promote inclusive green growth (IGG) in the country. It documents good practices, success stories and lessons learned in selected sectors of the country’s economy. The report contributed to informing the fifth issue of the Sustainable Development Report on Africa, which was produced under the theme "Promoting sustainable development in Africa through inclusive green growth".
Producing the report involved a desk review and consultations with various stakeholders, and an analysis of data and information collected in this manner. The report also examined the implication of the findings for policy, including options to foster IGG in the selected sectors.
By documenting key successes, challenges, good practices and lessons learned in IGG in Ghana, this report aims to facilitate knowledge networking among member States and regional and sub-regional organizations. The goal is to promote the sharing of best practices, and the scaling up and out of success stories. The report is also expected to inform future initiatives on inclusive green growth in Africa.
