AI is transforming education. But its future should not be determined by technology alone. From global guidance to AI competency frameworks, @UNESCO is helping countries ensure AI serves learners and teachers while protecting autonomy, privacy and the right to education. From 8 to 11 September 2026, we mark #DigitalLearningWeek. Discover more: unesco.org/en/weeks/digital-… #DigitalLearning #FutureOfEducation

The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is making it easier for Ghanaians to safely dispose of old and unused electronics. You can now drop off your e-waste such as phones, batteries, laptops, cables, and blenders at selected Melcom branches: 📍 Melcom Flower Pot (Spintex) 📍 Melcom North Kaneshie 📍 Melcom Madina E-waste contains materials that can harm the environment and human health if not properly managed. Do not mix them with household waste. Drop them off safely at Melcom. For larger appliances like fridges and other bulky items, schedule a free pickup using the GH Waste App available on the App Store and Google Play. The process allows easy sign up, flexible scheduling, and real time tracking. #EPAGhana #EwasteManagement #CircularEconomy #SustainableGhana #GreenGhana

💔 I am devastated by the tragic passing of Hon. Murtala Mohammed, Minister of MEST. He was a true statesman, visionary, and dear friend. His dedication to sciences, tech & innovation issues left a mark not just on Ghana but on all of us at @UnescoGhana. We have lost a true gem.
