Respuestas políticas para combatir la COVID-19: el caso de Ghana
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Este documento se concentra en las respuestas políticas del gobierno de Ghana con un enfoque en tres áreas; salud, económica y social, en las cuales el país condujo varias políticas públicas. El estudio destaca la adopción del enfoque 3T en salud, CAP-20 en economía y agua gratuita y electricidad subsidiada para los ciudadanos como intervenciones sociales. Asimismo, el estudio concluye que las medidas implementadas por el Gobierno de Ghana han arrojado resultados significativos, aunque se identifican algunos desafíos relacionados con los mecanismos de ejecución de las políticas públicas. Las estadísticas disponibles al 25 de octubre de 2020 sobre la situación de la COVID-19 en Ghana confirman los avances logrados.
