GhanaWeb checks from the list show that Edwina was listed as a Technical Assistant at the Climate Change Unit of Africa Women and Children Conference (AFRIWOCC).
According to the conference categorization of attendees, there are two sets of participants, the party (official government attendees) and the overflow (others coming from Ghana but attending independently).
