Hope for Future Generations (HFFG) and its partners have commended the Government of Ghana for fulfilling its 2025 vaccine co-financing obligation of USD 24.5 million, securing the country’s vaccine supply for the year.
HFFG described the payment as a decisive step that underscores the government’s commitment to protecting children’s health and sustaining the national immunisation programme.
While celebrating the achievement, the organisation urged government to adopt long-term domestic resource mobilisation strategies to ensure vaccine security beyond annual obligations.
It recommended mechanisms for advance payments, greater private sector involvement, and the establishment of clear immunisation budget lines in the national framework.
“Vaccines are one of the most cost-effective health interventions. Now is the time to move from reactive financing to a sustainable and fully domestically resourced vaccine programme,” HFFG stated.
The organisation reaffirmed its commitment to partnering with government, parliament, development agencies, and communities to strengthen health systems and ensure no child in Ghana dies from vaccine-preventable diseases.
For over 23 years, HFFG has worked across all 16 regions of Ghana, focusing on improving the well-being of women, children, and young people through participatory and rights-based approaches.
