Ghana Association of Persons with Albinism The Ghana Association of Persons with Albinism (GAPA) has appealed to government to include sun care products, dermatological and optical services on the National Health Insurance Scheme’s drugs and services list. That, the Association said, would mitigate the socio-economic challenges faced by its members since some were unemployed and could not afford such services. Mr Newton Kwabla Katseku, the Executive Director of GAPA, said this at a press briefing to mark the Seventh International Albinism Awareness Day, which falls on June 13. The programme is organised in collaboration with Engage Now Africa, a Non-Governmental Organisation, on the theme: “Strength Beyond All Odds”.
