Dr. Awal gave the assurance when the newly elected functional executive committee of GCF paid a courtesy call on him last Friday, April 21.<\/p>\n

The chairman of GCF, Nana Otuo Owuahene Acheampong, also known in private life as Franklin Glover, briefed the minister on the establishment of GCF and the genesis of the Ghana Culture Day celebrations which is in its 12th year.<\/p>\n
The GCF chairman noted that as part of GCF\u2019s determination to get the youth interested in Ghanaian culture, an inter schools debate was started as part of the Ghana Culture Day Celebration.<\/p>\n
He, therefore, appealed to the minister to liaise with his colleague at the Ministry of Education to explore the possibility of having a nationwide inter schools debate on culture.<\/p>\n
Nana Owuoahene Acheampong also informed the minister of access to the expertise available in the Forum to support the ministry in its mandate to develop the culture, arts, and tourism sectors.<\/p>\n
There was a mutual agreement between the two parties to collaborate on development-based projects within the culture and arts space.<\/p>\n
