Ghana’s Minister of Communications and Digitalization has unveiled plans to establish an Information and Communication Technology (ICT) lab in the Bouya Community. This initiative aims to bridge the digital divide, boost ICT literacy, and empower residents with essential digital skills.
During a recent visit to inaugurate rural telephony sites in the area, the Minister highlighted the critical role of digital inclusion in fostering socio-economic growth.
The ICT lab will offer:
- Digital Skills Training: Enhancing employability and fostering entrepreneurship.
- E-Learning Platforms: Expanding access to quality education.
- Online Resources: Connecting residents to global information and services.
This announcement has been warmly received by the Bouya Community, which has long anticipated such a resource. The lab will complement the newly launched rural telephony sites, further improving connectivity and digital capabilities in the region.
The initiative aligns with Ghana’s national strategy to harness technology for development. By investing in ICT infrastructure and digital literacy, the country is positioning itself as a hub for innovation and economic growth.
