Danish Queen set for two-day visit to Ghana in November
The Queen of Denmark, Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II will pay a State visit to Ghana in November.
She will be joined by several Danish ministers and a delegation of Danish businesses.
A
statement by the Danish Embassy stated that the visit comes on the back
of an invitation from President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to
Denmark’s Head of State,
Queen Margrethe’s II visit will be in Ghana from 23 – 24 November.
The
statement added that the State Visit “will emphasize and consolidate
the long-standing and well-established relations between Ghana and
Denmark while at the same time marking the gradual transition from aid
to trade.”
Government representatives and a delegation of Danish
companies and business organisations will be accompanying HM the Queen
in order to strengthen the political and commercial relations between
the two nations.
Denmark through the Danida development
cooperation has played an important role in developing key sectors and
institutions in Ghana. With Ghana’s graduation to a middle-income
country and the prospects of sustainable economic growth, Denmark is
gradually transitioning from development cooperation to trade
cooperation in line with the visions by the Government of Ghana.
During
the visit, a business conference will take place including seminars and
meetings under the theme “Ghana – an Emerging Market within Reach”. The
focus will be three priority sectors, where Denmark has key strengths
to offer the growing demand in Ghana: Food & Agriculture,
Sustainability, Maritime, Infrastructure & Railways
