USADF's Ghana Program

Over the past decade, Ghana has struggled to address rising levels of poverty, with nearly 40 percent of the population falling below the poverty level, and rates of poverty ranging as high as 70-80 percent in some regions. This has been compounded by high inflation rates and lack of access to capital, technology, and the skills training that would enable the small and medium-enterprise (SME) sector to realize its potential for creating greater employment and income-generating opportunities for the vast majority of Ghanaians.

ADF's priority funding sectors include high value-added agro-processing, information and communication technology, salt mining and processing for export, garment and textile manufacturing, exportable handicrafts, eco-tourism, and programs with micro-enterprise components.
