Consultancy: Development of a Simplified Guide
The Africa Centre for Energy Policy (ACEP), in collaboration with the Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII) and the Ghana Anti-Corruption Coalition (GACC), is implementing a governance-focused project under the support of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) thematic cluster. This project aims to foster stronger citizen engagement in governance and anti-corruption discourse, particularly during the 2024 election cycle in Ghana.
Corruption continues to be a critical threat to Ghana’s socioeconomic development, eroding trust in public institutions and hampering both economic and political progress. In light of this, various political parties have included anti-corruption initiatives in their manifestos ahead of the 2024 elections. However, many citizens struggle to understand these proposals due to their complex language and structure, which prevents meaningful engagement with the content.
GII, leading the implementation of this specific component, seeks to bridge this gap by producing a simplified guide on the anti-corruption initiatives presented in these manifestos. This tool will empower citizens with clear, digestible information, helping them assess the commitments made by political candidates and actively participate in holding these leaders accountable during and after the elections.
