@CanadaDev @parlcent 2/ The engagement was during the review of the Women’s Economic Empowerment Policy 2024 and served as a follow-up discussion with the Committee, CSOs, and the Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Gender, Culture, Arts and Heritage, Hon. Hanna Wendot.
On November 13, 2025, the Inclusive Legislatures for Gender-Responsive Policies (ILGRP) Project, funded by @CanadaDev and implemented by @AcepaAfrica in partnership with the @parlcent, held an engagement with the National Assembly Departmental Committee on Social Protection.
2/ The conversation centred on one question: How can Parliament use Gender Responsive Budgeting (GRB) to drive fairer, equitable outcomes? The session offered practical insights and sparked rich discussion on Parliament’s role in promoting gender-responsive national development.
On 18 November 2025, 28 MPs drawn from the Gender, Children and Social Welfare Committee, Women's Caucus and Young Parliamentarians Forum joined the ILGRP team for a session focused on making Ghana’s budget more gender responsive to the needs of women, men, girls and boys.
