Ghana Joins TV BRICS as Ninth African Media Partner

Ghana has officially joined as the ninth African media partner of TV BRICS, following the signing of an agreement by Albert Kofi Owusu, the General Manager of the Ghana News Agency (GNA), and Janna Tolstikova, the Chief Editor of TV BRICS. This partnership is designed to facilitate the exchange of new content, analytical media materials, and professional development for media personnel.

The agreement aims to strengthen media cooperation among countries in the Global South, focusing on content development and providing a platform to share African perspectives with a wider international audience. Tolstikova noted that the partnership reflects the growing engagement of African media organizations within the TV BRICS network, which includes South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Uganda, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Mozambique, and Tunisia.

Ghana's inclusion in this network is expected to enhance information exchange and trade investment in the West African region. The Ghana News Agency, established in 1957 and headquartered in Accra, is a state-owned agency that publishes reports on national and international socio-economic issues.
