Background Introductory talks on the AU-EU Agri-food Platform occurred in Accra in June 2020 at an event hosted by the European Commission, the African Union, and EuroCham Ghana.

It was agreed that a Ghana-EU Agri-Food Platform would be developed at first. Subsequently, a group of core stakeholders of the future platform was created comprising Ghanaian and European private sector associations and chambers, companies and experts, the European Union Delegation in Ghana, and national trade representatives at Embassies.

Following continued deliberations among stakeholders, as well as feasibility studies to perform in-depth analysis of future users, define specific services and membership conditions, the online platform is developed with the objective to strengthen the agriculture sector in Ghana and reinforce the partnership with the EU by creating linkages and visibility to key stakeholders.
