World Child Cancer shared a post on LinkedIn:
“A Milestone for Children’s Palliative Care in Ghana!
January 2025 marked a significant achievement in Accra – the successful completion of a transformative project dedicated to strengthening children’s palliative care in Ghana.
Launched in February 2024, this initiative delivered 10 specialised training sessions over the course of a year, providing healthcare professionals with essential medical, social, and psychological skills to support children with life-limiting conditions.
Led by World Child Cancer and the International Children’s Palliative Care Network (ICPCN) – with funding from Global Health Partnerships (formerly THET)’s Global Health Workforce – this programme has trained 128 healthcare professionals with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to provide compassionate, high-quality care.
This project has been a collective effort, bringing together healthcare providers, caregivers, policymakers, and global partners – all united in their commitment to advancing childhood palliative care in Ghana.
Thank you to everyone who contributed – partners, healthcare professionals, and supporters. This is more than the completion of a project; it’s the beginning of a stronger future for children’s palliative care in Ghana.
Help provide quality care for children with life-limiting conditions and donate today!”
