The study presented by DIWA emphasizes the need for robust capacity-building measures to strengthen Ghana’s Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) system, aligning with national development goals under the Coordinated Programme of Economic and Social Development Policies.

The week-long event served as a platform to share research-proven innovations and foster dialogue among policymakers, educators, and practitioners on reforms like STEM education, TVET, and curriculum restructuring.
