Toward a national agenda for neglected and underutilized species in Ghana

Despite the growing interest in neglected and underutilized species around the world, recent research highlights the need for more West African studies on how policies and governance can support the conservation and promotion of NUS in the region. The National Agenda for Neglected and Underutilized Species (NUS) in Ghana aims to fill the identified policy gap.

The National Agenda has six interrelated action areas and 34 actions.
