The National Development Planning Commission has launched a long-term national development framework, Vision 2057, aimed at elevating the country to upper middle-income status by 2057.
Professor George Gyan-Baffour, Chairman of the NDPC, speaking at an event in Accra to unveil the plan, highlighted its foundational elements and overarching objectives.
According to him, the plan builds on Ghana’s historical development trajectory, reflecting lessons learned from past experiences and aligning with global commitments such as the Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement on Climate Change.
He emphasized that the framework provided a roadmap for achieving integrated socio-economic development goals, setting a course for a prosperous and self-reliant nation.
Professor Gyan-Baffour explained that the Vision 2057 Long-Term National Development Perspective Framework, instead of being a rigid prescriptive plan, offers a flexible guiding document.
This approach, he said, allowed future governments the freedom to choose their projects and programs while adhering to the overarching national vision.
The Director-General of the NDPC, Dr. Kojo Esseim Mensah-Abrampa, during a presentation on the Vision 2057 Framework for Long-Term National Development, added that the framework focuses on various dimensions, including human settlement, housing development, democratic governance, and human security.
He emphasized that, the economic dimension of the development plan aimed to build a prosperous, inclusive, and resilient economy, with a significant focus on TVET and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) training to create an equitable and healthy society.
