In his acceptance remarks, Dr. Nkrumah encouraged mentees and mentors to see mentorship as a transformative journey. He emphasized that while mentors provide guidance, mentees bring fresh perspectives and energy that help both parties grow:
“Mentorship is a journey of mutual growth and discovery. Every mentee has unique insights, and through our shared experiences, we create a dynamic learning environment that benefits everyone.”
This award marks a new chapter in Dr. Nkrumah’s career as he continues to inspire a generation of African entrepreneurs dedicated to building businesses that not only succeed but uplift their communities.

Tunani Africa Ghana Holds ESG Training for Ghana Insurance College at Aqua Safari
In a groundbreaking initiative aimed at empowering Ghana’s insurance sector, Tunani Africa Ghana conducted a specialized training on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles for members of the Ghana Insurance College (GIC). Held at the scenic Aqua Safari resort, the session offered attendees an in-depth understanding of ESG’s critical role in shaping the future of the insurance industry and aligning business practices with sustainable and responsible standards.
With growing global attention on sustainable finance, this workshop was timely and essential for professionals in the insurance sector. ESG criteria have become central to evaluating corporate behavior, as companies face increasing scrutiny regarding their environmental impact, social responsibilities, and governance practices. Recognizing this shift, GIC partnered with Tunani Africa Ghana to provide its members with the tools and knowledge required to adapt to these evolving standards.
The Scope and Objectives of the Training
The ESG training was meticulously designed by Tunani Africa Ghana to address the specific needs and challenges facing the insurance industry. The curriculum emphasized three main areas:
- Environmental Responsibility: Participants learned about the impact of environmental policies and risk management strategies in insurance. They explored how insurance companies could mitigate climate-related risks, adopt green practices, and contribute to Ghana’s commitment to sustainable development.
- Social Impact: As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, insurance companies are tasked with meeting higher social accountability standards. The training covered ways to integrate social impact into their business model, focusing on stakeholder engagement, fair labor practices, and consumer protection.
Corporate Governance: Good governance is vital for trust and transparency. Participants reviewed best practices for corporate governance, including board accountability, ethical decision-making, and compliance with regulatory standards. Through this, attendees gained insights into how strong governance practices enhance an insurance company’s reputation and long-term resilience.
Engaging and Practical Insights
Dr. E.N. Kwame Nkrumah, Lead Partner of Tunani Africa Ghana, and Dr. Eric Yiadom, Team lead on ESG highlighted the importance of ESG in transforming Ghana’s insurance landscape:
“The insurance industry stands at a critical intersection where environmental stewardship, social equity, and robust governance are no longer optional but necessary. This training is not just a learning opportunity but a call to action for GIC members to lead the industry toward a sustainable future.”
The session combined lectures, real-world case studies, and interactive group discussions to ensure participants gained practical insights and actionable strategies. Facilitators presented global examples of ESG integration in insurance and guided attendees in applying these strategies within Ghana’s unique regulatory and market environment.
Building a Sustainable Future for Ghana’s Insurance Industry
The ESG training at Aqua Safari is just the beginning of Tunani Africa Ghana’s mission to promote sustainable practices in key industries across Ghana. As the nation continues to experience economic growth, the integration of ESG standards will be instrumental in ensuring that growth is both sustainable and inclusive.
By equipping insurance professionals with ESG knowledge, Tunani Africa Ghana is preparing the sector to manage risks more effectively, build consumer trust, and align with international standards that are rapidly becoming the norm. The training also fosters a culture of sustainability within the industry, paving the way for responsible growth that benefits the broader community.
Tunani Africa Ghana’s collaboration with the Ghana Insurance College underscores the critical need for capacity-building initiatives that respond to the global call for sustainable finance. Through this training, Ghana’s insurance industry takes a significant step forward in its commitment to ESG, setting an example for other sectors to follow in embracing responsible and sustainable business practices.
