AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Court Ruling: Ghana’s High Court in Adentan quashed a Ghana Tertiary Education Commission (GTEC) directive that would have derecognized Universidad Empresarial de Costa Rica (UNEM) certificates issued before Oct. 20, 2025, saying GTEC failed due process by not contacting affected degree holders. Energy & Climate: El Niño is expected to cut Costa Rica’s rainy-season rainfall by about 30%, putting pressure on a grid that relies heavily on hydropower, while the government pushes electricity-market reforms to break the long-running state monopoly. Health: A UCR study warns up to 1,114 people a year may face sudden-death risk from hereditary heart conditions due to gaps in timely diagnosis and family screening. Justice & Rights: Costa Rica’s family court rejected the government’s bid to annul the country’s first same-sex marriage, keeping the 2015 union valid. Security & Borders: Costa Rican border police seized nearly 11 million colones in smuggled World Cup postcards in Golfito. Environment: Researchers announced a new marine worm species, Sthenelais onca, discovered at Playa Naranjo in Guanacaste. Diplomacy: Costa Rica’s Lina Ajoy was elected SICA secretary-general, ending a long vacancy and dealing a blow to Nicaragua’s push to control the post.
