Assessing Ghana’s 2025 Budget: Digitalization as a Catalyst for Inclusive Growth and Governance.

In today’s rapidly evolving world, digitalization is no longer a luxury but a necessity for economic growth, efficient governance, and social inclusion. It is therefore refreshing to note that the recently read Ghana 2025 Budget statement outlined several key digitalization initiatives aimed at fostering inclusive growth and improving governance. While the 2025 budget signals a commitment to leveraging technology for development and governance, the effectiveness of these initiatives will depend on addressing key challenges, such as infrastructure deficits especially in rural Ghana, digital literacy gaps, and cybersecurity risks, and ensuring robust implementation.
