This report by UN-based Better Than Cash Alliance, assesses Ghana’s progress to date, and sets out specific policy recommendations that can accelerate Ghana’s journey toward a more digital economy. The report draws on a fast-growing body of knowledge about success factors in similar markets. It also examines three areas of specific focus – government fees and fines, public utility payments, and the fast-moving consumer goods sector – where digitization can have particularly powerful impacts.

The Gambia Women's Finance Association (GAWFA) recently disbursed loans, amounting to over two million dalasis to women farmers across Central River (CRR) and North Bank Regions (NBR). The GAWFA project seeks to enhance women's production and productivity capacity, in order to improve their livelihoods.
