A Ghanaian female pharmaceutical technician in a white lab coat and blue hair net inspects a bottle of antiretroviral medicine inside a modern pharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Ghana. In the background, a Ghana flag hangs on the wall and medicine blister packs move along a production line. On the stainless steel table in front of her are boxes labeled HIV Test Kit, PrEP, and Condoms 12 Pack, with blister packs of tablets. The image represents Ghana's ambition to locally manufacture HIV medicines, diagnostics and prevention commodities to strengthen health security and access.
