Ghana, Korea Collaborate On Fighting Misinformation

Ghana and Korea have agreed to develop a strategic partnership to curb the growing menace of misinformation and disinformation in the country.

This came to light when Minister for Information, Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, received the Secretary General of the Korean National Commission for UNESCO, Kyung-Koo Han in his office on Wednesday, December 6, 2023.

During the meeting, both parties discussed collaborative efforts to tackle the rising tide of misinformation and disinformation that are increasingly becoming one of the major threats confronting the security and development of both countries.

This comes on the back of a recent National Conference on Disinformation and Misinformation, where a 7-point communique was collectively agreed upon by political parties, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), media representatives, and development partners.
