Peduase Valley Resort has hosted a soiree for press, government, investors, creative people, and other stakeholders in the art, culture and tourism industry to discuss the theme, “Arts and Culture for a more sustainable social economic environment”.

The conversation centered around the current state and methods of preserving and passing on peculiar elements of Ghanaian identity, as well as in what ways it can be improved.peduase-valley-resort6

Among key personalities present were the Deputy Minister of Tourism Honorable Dzifa Gomashie, (who was also special guest of honour), veteran artist and musician Efo Kofi, chairman of the National Development Planning Commission Dr. Kwesi Botchwey, singer Wiyaala, and CEO of the resort Mr. Hussein Fakhry.

The deputy Minister of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, Dzifa Gomashie  asked Ghanaians to guard the country’s cultural heritage. She explained that “…the preservation of our cultural heritage is important and its promotion thereof. For as long as we let our appreciation and our desire to be like everybody else around the world, before we think of ourselves then we slow down the way in which we grow.”

In her speech, Hon. Dzifa Gomashie asked all to play active roles in safeguarding our culture and not solely rely on efforts from government. Citing her personal experiences touring various destinations around the world (notably in Hawaii), she pointed out what economic potential for instance, comes with properly packaging tourism experiences.peduase-valley-resort11
