Strengthening Accountability Through Access to Information
Transparency International Ghana convened a National Advocacy & Stakeholder Dialogue on the Implementation of the Right to Information (RTI) Act, bringing together representatives from state institutions, civil society organisations, the media, and accountability actors to discuss how access to information can be leveraged to combat corruption and strengthen public accountability.
Held under the Stopping Impunity for Corruption through Enhanced Accountability (SICEA) Project, the dialogue highlighted key findings on the implementation of the RTI Act in Ghana and explored practical approaches to improving transparency, promoting citizen participation, and enhancing the monitoring of corruption-related cases.
Participants engaged in discussions on the challenges and opportunities surrounding access to information, while reaffirming the importance of collaboration among stakeholders to ensure the effective implementation of the RTI Act and strengthen accountability systems in Ghana.
