OLE Ghana Report Underscores Country’s Needs
OLE Ghana, with support from UNESCO’s cluster office in Accra, convened a cross-section of Ghana’s education sector in May to discuss how to advance quality universal basic education (QUBE) in the country. A report (ole_ghana_report) on the sessions confirms a commitment to education for development, a fear that the goals of education for all by 2015 will be difficult to reach, and a need to position Ghana to use a range of new technologies in education, among other steps to redouble its efforts.
OLE Ghana Director Kofi Essien (pictured here) is setting up an online forum to continue working on the matter. “Clearly the feedback from the discussions indicates that there are still a lot more questions to be asked and issues to be discussed,” the report says. “The discussions also underscore the need for all educational stakeholders in building common synergies and working together to execute the country’s QUBE agenda.”
