G-WAC 

The German-West African Centre for Global Health and Pandemic Prevention (G-WAC) is hosted by the College of Health Sciences, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Kumasi, Ghana. The Centre collaborates with the Technical University Berlin, Charité-University of Medicine Berlin and University of Bonn, Germany. 
The Centre aims to address the existential threat of pandemics to the health and welfare of people through trans- and inter-disciplinary research projects targeting both the main drivers of pandemics and the key pillars of resilient health systems in the WHO framework using One Health approaches.
G-WAC is funded through the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) using funding from the German Federal Foreign Office for the establishment of the Global Health and Pandemic Prevention Centre at KNUST.
