加纳 John Dramani Mahama 总统宣布计划新建三所技术大学,并为教师建造 5 万套住房,将教育与技能发展置于政府经济转型战略的核心位置。
2 月 27 日周五在议会发表 2026 年国情咨文时,总统表示扩建技术大学旨在弥合加纳的技能缺口,应对长期存在的青年失业问题。他强调技术职业教育的战略意义在于使培训与行业需求和国家发展重点相匹配。
"技术大学在更广泛的刺激劳动力需求政策框架内,通过提供高质量、与行业接轨且注重实践的培训,对缩小技能差距和降低青年失业率具有关键作用。" 他阐述道。
Mahama 总统指出,这些新建院校不仅将扩大招生规模,更将成为创新与产业协作的中心,助力培养适应现代技术驱动型经济的劳动力队伍。此举正值社会对毕业生失业问题及学历与劳动力市场需求脱节日益担忧之际。通过扩展技术教育,政府正转向更注重实践的培训模式,直接对接制造业、工程、建筑和新兴领域的需求。
除高等教育改革外,总统还宣布了一项针对教师群体的雄心勃勃的住房计划,重点惠及农村和服务不足地区的教育工作者。
该计划拟通过地区议会共同基金、加纳教育信托基金和加纳全国教师协会等利益相关方合作,交付5万套住房。Mahama 总统表示,改善教师居住条件对提振士气、稳定师资队伍及实现全国教育工作者均衡配置至关重要。
"这一合作彰显了我们共同致力于改善教师生活条件,特别是在农村和偏远地区留住人才的决心。" 他强调。
President Mahama Unveils Plan for 3 New Technical Universities to Tackle Youth Unemployment
President John Dramani Mahama has unveiled plans to establish three new technical universities and construct 50,000 housing units for teachers, positioning education and skills development at the centre of his government’s economic transformation drive.
Delivering his 2026 State of the Nation Address in Parliament on Friday, February 27, the President said the expansion of technical universities is intended to bridge Ghana’s skills gap and confront persistent youth unemployment.
He underscored the strategic importance of technical and vocational education in aligning training with industry demand and national development priorities.
“Technical universities play a critical role in closing the skills gap and reducing youth unemployment by delivering high-quality, industry-aligned and practice-oriented training within a broader policy framework that stimulates labour demand,” he stated.
According to President Mahama, the proposed institutions will not merely increase enrolment capacity but will serve as hubs for innovation and industrial collaboration, helping to prepare a workforce capable of competing in a modern, technology-driven economy.
The move comes amid growing concerns about graduate unemployment and the mismatch between academic qualifications and labour market needs. By expanding technical education, the government is seeking to pivot towards more practice-based training that feeds directly into manufacturing, engineering, construction and emerging sectors.
Beyond tertiary education reforms, the President also announced an ambitious housing programme targeting teachers, particularly those serving in rural and underserved areas.
The initiative aims to deliver 50,000 housing units through a partnership involving the District Assemblies Common Fund, the Ghana Education Trust Fund and the Ghana National Association of Teachers, among other stakeholders.
President Mahama said improving accommodation for teachers is critical to boosting morale, retention and equitable distribution of educators across the country.
“This partnership demonstrates our collective dedication to enhancing teachers’ living conditions and boosting retention, especially in rural and remote areas,” he noted.
