The Vice-President, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, will represent President John Dramani Mahama at the 7th European Union–African Union (EU–AU) Summit, scheduled for 24–25 November 2025 in Luanda, Angola.
Professor Opoku-Agyemang will deliver a statement on behalf of the President, reaffirming Ghana’s commitment to fair and forward-looking partnerships between Africa and Europe, anchored in mutual respect, shared prosperity and strategic cooperation. She is also expected to advocate for a more inclusive and representative multilateral system of global governance.
Addressing an audience of Heads of State, AU and EU leaders, and key international stakeholders, the Vice-President will outline Ghana’s core priorities: economic stability, job creation, food security, climate action, peace and security, and value-chain transformation, particularly in agriculture and cocoa.
She will highlight Ghana’s ongoing economic recovery and structural reforms, including the government’s flagship 24-Hour Economy initiative, the drive towards greater local value addition in cocoa, expanded infrastructure under the Big Push Initiative, strengthened agricultural financing, and the empowerment of women through the forthcoming Women’s Development Bank.
The Vice-President’s participation at the Summit underscores Ghana’s commitment to constructive dialogue, strategic partnerships and a united African voice in addressing global challenges.
