Ghana is facing a double-edged climate risk in 2026: counting the cost of catastrophic floods while bracing for possible drought within the same rainy season. Barely a month ago, Ghana was reeling from devastating floods. On June 28–29, 2026, a violent rainstorm triggered flash floods across Greater Accra and parts of southern Ghana. Neighbourhoods including […]
The Secretary General of the Ghana Red Cross Society (GRCS), Mr Eric Gregory Kwatia, has warned that Ghana's increasing exposure to climate change and extreme weather events is placing unprecedented pressure on humanitarian response systems, calling for a united national effort to protect vulnerable communities from future disasters.
The Ghana Red Cross Society (GRCS), with support from the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), has officially launched a six-month emergency response operation valued at approximately GH¢8.3 million to provide life-saving humanitarian assistance to thousands of people affected by the devastating floods that ravaged parts of Ghana in June.
Lake Chad's dramatic shrinkage has brought about severe impacts on the lives of millions. To counteract this crisis, governments are investing in initiatives aimed at rehabilitating the lake's ecosystem. A noteworthy solution includes the ambitious Transaqua project, which seeks to channel water from the Congo River back into Lake Chad. This vital endeavor aims not only to replenish the lake but also to foster economic growth in the surrounding regions.
The government has launched a new 10-year National Urban Policy and a National Slum Upgrading and Prevention Strategy, acknowledging that Ghana's previous urban development policy achieved only about half of its intended objectives as cities continue to grapple with flooding, housing shortages, congestion and unplanned settlements.
Yet despite the billions of cedis spent on enforcement, illegal mining continues to expand, forests continue to disappear, and rivers that once sustained farming communities have become polluted with mercury and silt.
Photographs taken at the Mallam Interchange in Accra last week reveal alarming structural deterioration at one of the capital’s busiest and most critical road infrastructure assets — raising urgent questions about public safety and the state of bridge maintenance in Ghana. The images, captured at the beam-column junction beneath the flyover, show severe concrete spalling, […]
Every year, when the rains come, some parts of Ghana flood. Roads become impassable, homes and businesses are damaged, livelihoods are disrupted, and, tragically, lives are sometimes lost.
On the morning of 29 June 2026, roughly 140 millimetres of rain fell on Accra in a single day, more than double the heaviest downpour of the year before. By the time the water pulled back, at least 12 people were dead, according to news reports citing Ghana’s National Fire Service, among them a mother and her child swept away in the Achimota-Agbogbloshie area. Rescue teams pulled more than 400 people from submerged homes, the same reports said. The neighbourhoods that go under every year, Kanesh
One moment, I was addressing a room full of investors, policymakers and conservation leaders about forest finance. The next, I was checking my phone for updates from home as heavy rains left parts of Accra underwater, including my own home.
Acting on President John Mahama's directive, the Flood Mitigation Task Force has commenced a phased dredging and demolition exercise across parts of Accra to reclaim waterways and reduce the risk of flooding ahead of future rains.

Every rainy season, the same cycle repeats itself. Communities are submerged, families lose their homes, businesses suffer huge losses, roads become impassable, and the government spends millions of Ghana cedis on emergency relief. Yet, once the floodwaters recede, national attention fades until the next disaster. Ghana cannot continue to respond to flooding as an emergency. It must be managed as a predictable national risk through science, technology and evidence-based planning. The Council fo
The government's Flood Mitigation Task Force has intensified efforts to reduce perennial flooding in Accra by beginning the demolition of structures illegally erected on waterways while simultaneously undertaking extensive dredging of drains and channels in flood-prone communities.
For years, Ghana's fight against illegal mining has been fought where everyone can see it. Brown rivers. Destroyed forests. Collapsed farmlands. Excavators tearing through riverbanks.
Every day across Ghana, thousands of people hop onto commercial motorbikes, popularly known as Okada, to beat traffic, reach workplaces, schools and markets, or access communities where conventional transport is unavailable. For many, these motorcycles have become an indispensable part of daily life. Yet every journey carries a risk, and far too often, that risk is made worse by the simple decision not to wear a helmet. Road crashes continue to claim lives and leave many others with life-alteri
Every day in Accra, thousands of pedestrians make a choice that could determine whether they return home safely or become another statistic in a road accident. While footbridges have been constructed at strategic locations across the capital to provide safe passage over busy highways, many people continue to ignore them, opting instead to dash across speeding traffic. This seemingly ordinary decision has become one of Ghana's persistent road safety challenges, raising questions about public att
Flooding has emerged as one of the most pressing environmental and urban development challenges confronting Ghana today. In major urban centres such as Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, Tema, Kasoa, and several rapidly expanding municipalities, floods continue to claim lives and destroy homes and businesses. The floods also damage public infrastructure and impose high economic costs on both the government and citizens. Although climate change and increasingly unpredictable rainfall patterns have intensi
The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) Ghana has announced plans to provide skills training and livelihood support for families affected by the devastating June 29 floods, shifting its focus from emergency relief to long-term recovery. The organisation says the initiative is intended to help victims rebuild their livelihoods and generate sustainable sources of income after the floods destroyed homes, businesses and other means of survival in several communities.
Heaps of uncollected refuse and heavily choked drains remain in parts of Accra nearly two weeks after the nationwide clean-up exercise directed by President John Dramani Mahama, raising concerns about post-clean-up waste management.
