The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is taking its public education campaign on Ghana’s ban on Styrofoam products to Aflao in the Volta Region on Wednesday, November 11, 2026, targeting stakeholders and communities along the country’s eastern border.
Ahead of the campaign, the EPA paid a courtesy call on the Paramount Chief of the Aflao Traditional Area on Tuesday to formally announce the planned visit and seek the traditional authority’s support.
The visit was also intended to secure collaboration with traditional leaders for a public awareness float to educate residents and stakeholders about the national ban on Styrofoam products.
The EPA said the engagement was aimed at strengthening cooperation with traditional authorities and encouraging community participation in public education and enforcement of the ban.
The Aflao campaign forms part of the Authority’s broader national efforts to raise awareness about the restriction on Styrofoam products and promote compliance among businesses, traders and consumers.
