President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has received, on behalf of the Government and people of Ghana, the 2019 FOCOS Humanitarian Award for the country's "longstanding support for the Foundation of Orthopaedics and Complex Spine".
This was at the FOCOS NYC Gala ceremony, held in New York, United States (US).
Receiving the award, President Akufo-Addo said orthopaedic health conditions were severe among low and middle-income countries - less resourced to provide adequate access to orthopaedic care.
