On behalf of the United States Agency for International Development in Ghana (USAID/Ghana), we are pleased to present our fiscal year 2015 Annual Report, which highlights some of our achievements during the period from October 2014 through September 2015.

We work in four areas: Economic Growth; Health, Population, and Nutrition; Education; and Democracy, Rights and Governance. Our sectoral approach is rooted in the assessment of key gaps and constraints that impede Ghana’s development, and the identification of the institutional-base required for sustainable development. Targeted interventions in these areas are identified in partnership with the Government of Ghana (GoG), civil society and development partners.These interventions are designed to achieve a “catalyst” effect that complements Ghanaian public and private investments, foreign investment, and development partner support to enable Ghana to realize its ambitious yet achievable goal of becoming an established lower middle-income country by 2022.
