President John Dramani Mahama has begun his engagements on the sidelines of the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York with a meeting with Alex Soros, Chairman and Founder of the Open Society Foundations (OSF).
The meeting, held on Sunday, focused on potential areas of collaboration, particularly efforts to strengthen regional integration within the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
Alex Soros, an investor and philanthropist who has previously engaged with President Mahama, expressed interest in exploring partnerships with Ghana and supporting initiatives aimed at advancing ECOWAS integration.
The meeting also served as a precursor to a planned presidential roundtable being coordinated by the Open Society Foundations.
The roundtable is expected to bring President Mahama together with a select group of global foundation presidents and chief executive officers from organisations including the Gates Foundation, Ford Foundation, Open Society Foundations, Hewlett Packard, Hilton, Rockefeller Foundation, Humanity United, Anglo American, Chandler and UBS Optimus, among others.
The engagements form part of President Mahama’s diplomatic and development-focused activities in New York as world leaders gather for the 81st UN General Assembly.
