My experience as a humanitarian profoundly shaped my understanding of aid work.

Those I worked alongside were practical, resourceful and brave as they saved and transformed lives.

Humanitarian workers can only do this if they can operate safely. We call for their protection.

When Parliaments connect meaningfully with citizens and civil society, governance becomes more inclusive, transparent, and effective.

@JennyChapman meets @askbagbin to dive deeper into the UK's partnerships with @GhanaParliament. She was delighted to discuss parliamentary engagement with Governor Johnson Asiamah of @thebankofghana, Director Omar Seidu of @StatsGhana and Ibrahim-Tanko Amidu of @STARghana. These organisations are longstanding UK-partners that play a critical role providing elected officials with the evidence needed to maximise impact.

The UK stands with Ghana in building a robust governance ecosystem powered by data, dialogue, and democratic values.

When tax systems work for everyone, economies grow, and debt burdens shrink.
