Former President John Agyekum Kufuor left Accra on Thursday for Dresden, Germany, to deliver the keynote address at the 33rd Congress of the German Protestant.<\/p>\n
The congress is expected to be attended by about 100,000 participants.<\/p>\n
A statement issued in Accra and signed by Frank Agyekum, spokesperson at the office of Mr. Kufuor, said the former President would also engage in a high level panel dialogue with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, on the topic ‘Towards a New World Order.’<\/p>\n
It said the invitation from the church indicated that ‘With the 100,000 participants expected, we will transform the city into a place of political, social and ecological debate, interwoven by spiritual and cultural programme.<\/p>\n
‘The broad based commitment by citizens will give rise to a huge civil society forum exceeding far beyond the scale of the church,’ it added.<\/p>\n
The statement noted that the former President’s speech would touch on the potentials of emerging countries in international trade and politics; the responsibilities of developed countries in ensuring a fairer playing field for all, and how African countries could position themselves in order to attain maximum benefits in the globalised economy.<\/p>\n
The former President is expected to be away for five days.<\/p>\n
