NDPC and Prof Bokpin identify jobless growth as Ghana's macroeconomic structural failure
Ghana's National Development Planning Commission and economist Professor Bokpin have separately identified the country's economic expansion as jobless, noting that 6 percent GDP growth has not translated into meaningful employment creation. Both analyses trace the failure to weak industrial growth and the absence of employment targets in macroeconomic planning, providing a sobering context for technology startups making job-creation claims.
