Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings appointment as Ghana Environment's

Overview

During her parliamentary vetting, minister-designate Dr. Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings argued that promised climate finance from wealthy nations has largely failed to reach Ghana. To address this gap, she proposed leveraging the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) and increasing South-South cooperation to facilitate technology sharing and investment.

Following her confirmation, Dr. Agyeman-Rawlings was sworn in as Ghana’s Minister for Environment, Science and Technology by President John Dramani Mahama. In her inaugural statement, she pledged to address critical challenges including illegal mining, climate change, pollution, and environmental degradation. She emphasized a stewardship approach to natural resources and called for practical partnerships between science, the private sector, and civil society to drive national development.
