Metro TV’s Paul Adom-Otchere visits ACET

The African Center for Economic Transformation (ACET) has started discussions with Metro TV’s Paul Adom-Otchere on broadcasting economic transformation themes to television audiences in Ghana. In a meeting at ACET’s offices last week, the ACET communication team discussed a program format with the “Good Evening Ghana” host that would make agricultural issues attractive to Ghanaians. Agriculture is one of eight thematic chapters under the Pan-African Coalition for Transformation (PACT) launched by ACET in Kigali, Rwanda in March.

PACT is a unique platform for policy design and implementation across the continent, being driven through thematic chapters that act as champions for economic transformation.

Metro TV is a privately owned free to air television station in Ghana.

Adom-Otchere expressed sympathy with the ACET approach and agreed to meet again next month to firm up some of the ideas explored.

Media partnerships are part of ACET’s 2016 Strategic Communication Plan. The African Center for Economic Transformation (ACET) is an economic policy institute supporting Africa’s long-term growth through transformation. Its vision is to support an economically transformed Africa within a generation.
