Summary

EVENT OVERVIEW

 

Join Ghana’s pharmaceutical and public health community for a remarkable national gathering as we officially unveil six groundbreaking books authored by Daniel Amaning Danquah, PhD, a pharmacist, regulatory expert, and thought leader deeply involved in strengthening Ghana’s pharmaceutical systems.

 

This launch brings together practitioners, regulators, students, industry leaders, academia, and public health stakeholders for an inspiring programme that blends knowledge-sharing, celebration, and professional networking.

 

 

WHY THIS LAUNCH MATTERS

Pharmacy in Ghana is evolving rapidly. Regulatory reforms, quality systems, digital transformation, OTCMS empowerment, improved supply-chain practices, and stronger public health frameworks are reshaping the profession.

These six books respond directly to that shift. They offer practical tools, Ghana-relevant insights, and evidence-based guidance for today’s practitioner, policymaker, educator, or student. Collectively, they provide a cohesive knowledge ecosystem that supports regulatory excellence, professional competence, and safer pharmaceutical practice.
