By 2021, Ghana has made moderate progress in its efforts to eliminate the worst forms of child labour. The government has developed public and private sector initiatives to address child labor in the cocoa industry. The government has launched a new national action plan to eradicate human trafficking, and the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Welfare has developed a communication plan to guide efforts to raise awareness about human trafficking for the years 2022-2026.

However, children in Ghana are subjected to the worst forms of child labour, especially in fishing and cocoa production and harvesting. Prohibitions related to the trafficking of children fall in line with international standards because, although Ghana outlaws the use, purchase and donation of children for electronic work, the law does not extend to the public. It is a law that prohibits the use of children in illegal activities, including the production and sale of narcotics. In addition, the government did not accept the Optional Protocol to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child on the sale of children, child prostitution and child pornography.

The program supported by the Ministry of Education under the free and compulsory basic education aims to increase the rate and enrollment of schools. The MOGCSP school feeding program in Ghana aims to reduce malnutrition and improve student attendance; The Capitation Assistance Scheme helps defray the cost of basic education for students in public primary schools; and its Ghana Education Service—the women's education division maintains women's education officers at the regional and local levels and mobilizes communities to enroll girls in schools. During the reporting period, the program provided meals to students in public schools.

Although the government has worked together with companies, NGOs and international organizations to implement programs for child labor in cocoa production, fishing and mining, the number of these programs In addition, other areas that require greater government attention include the provision of shelters in the regions and regions and the provision of adequate funds and equipment for rescue operations and the protection of victims.

Although Ghana criminally prohibits the use, purchase and donation of electronic pornography, the law does not extend to pornography. Although Ghana has banned some hazardous jobs for children, the current list of hazardous jobs does not cover all jobs or activities known to involve child labor, including cocoa production. Furthermore, the law does not prevent the use of children for illegal activities, including drug production and trafficking. The government has enacted child labor laws and regulations. However, there are gaps in Ghana's legal framework to adequately protect children from the worst forms of child labour, including commercial sex work.
