During the meeting, the Ambassador (R) made key requests aimed at deepening collaboration
The Ambassador of Burkina Faso to Ghana, David Kabré, has paid a courtesy call on the Minister of Education, Haruna Iddrisu, to strengthen bilateral cooperation in the education sector between the two countries.
During the meeting, the Ambassador made key requests aimed at deepening educational collaboration.
These included opening Ghana’s public tertiary institutions to high school graduates from Burkina Faso at capped fees, as well as support for English language instruction in Burkina Faso through the provision of Ghanaian English teachers and teacher training opportunities in Ghana for Burkinabè nationals.
In response, Haruna Iddrisu assured the Ambassador that the requests had been favourably considered.
He further announced plans to initiate a Labour Exchange Programme, under which Ghanaian English teachers would be deployed to Burkina Faso to teach English, while Burkinabè teachers would be hosted in Ghana to teach French.
The minister noted that the initiative would not only strengthen educational ties but also promote cultural exchange and bilingual competence between the two neighbouring countries.
He reaffirmed Ghana’s commitment to regional cooperation and mutual development through education.
