The Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) is the umbrella organization to which all journalists in Ghana belong. The current president is Mr Affail Monney.

Founded in 1949, the Ghana Journalists Association (GJA) has become the umbrella organization representing Ghanaian journalists. It is registered as a professional association and listed as one of several bodies on the board of the National Media Commission.

In its activities GJA tends to achieve higher professional standards, to promote and defend press freedom and to create solidarity among Ghanaian journalists and with other journalists both in Ghana and abroad.

To realize these objectives GJA organizes educational programmes, workshops, seminars and lectures on issues relevant to media development and growth.

In May 2021, the GJA, Ghana Independent Broadcasters Association and the Private Newspaper Printers Association of Ghana urged the National Security to apologize to the management of Citi FM and Citi TV due to the alleged assault and maltreatment of Caleb Kudah and the invasion of the media house.
