  • Existing cooperation includes education, highlighted by a Memorandum of Understanding with the University of Ghana, and healthcare, with the recruitment of Ghanaian nurses.
  • Plans are in place to expand collaboration beyond education and health into trade, investment, cultural diplomacy, and the creation of formal mechanisms for people-to-people connections.
