The
National Communications Authority (NCA) has commenced hosting the African
Follow-Up Phase of the 7th Cohort of the ICT Policy & Regulation –
Institutional Strengthening (IPRIS)-SPIDER Project in Accra. The four-day
deliberations, running from March 9 to 12, are being held at the Lancaster
Hotel.
The
sessions focus on Ghana’s Change Initiative, particularly the development of a
National Spectrum Policy and a Spectrum Roadmap. The aim is to establish a
forward-looking framework that will guide spectrum allocation, licensing, and
utilisation over the next five to ten years.
Through
the project, the NCA seeks to align Ghana’s spectrum management practices with
global standards, enhance proactive planning within the Authority, and drive
the pursuit of universal access to communication services across the country.
