Last October 2008, IMANI’s CEO facilitated a high-powered Ghanaian delegation to the second regional meeting of ICAP.

Mr. Franklin Cudjoe, whose IMANI facilitated Ghana’s draft policy on alcohol spoke on Partnership & Multi-sectoral Approaches in Alcohol Policy formulation. The former Deputy Minister of Health for Ghana, Hon. Abraham Dwumah Odoom underscored the need to have a good alcohol policy.

He was very glad that Ghana had set the pace for successful draft of the policy and was ready to present to Parliamentary Committed on Health as well as to the Cabinet.

The Ghanaian contingent included:
