Ghana-Canada Research Partnership

Ghana-Canada Research Partnership

The Ghana-Canada Research Partnership (GCRP) was launched at a meeting in Ottawa on October 30, 2017, with eight initial participants. Since then, other colleagues have been recommended and added to the list.

Goals

The long-term vision of the GCRP is to improve the health of Ghanaians by strengthening the national health research system. This will be done by:

  • Strengthening the health research capabilities of both Ghanaian and Canadian partners at the individual, institutional and system levels.
  • Increasing the production and use of health knowledge through collaborative research projects.

To achieve these goals, team members will respect and acknowledge the differences in communication norms in both countries, exploring new approaches in communicating that ensure all team members are included in the various team dialogues and receive relevant updates. These innovative approaches to knowledge sharing and collaboration support our long-term vision.
