ILGRP Project Team In Ghana Engages CSOs and WRGs on Lawmaking Process In Ghana

The ILGRP project in Ghana had interactive working sessions with CSOs and WRGs to discuss approaches to effectively engage in the lawmaking process in Ghana. The discussions centered on enhancing understanding of how Parliament is organized, the structures that support the work of MPs, and some innovations within the institution that will improve the way CSOs engage.

Participants also shared lessons based on previous engagements as part of coalitions or as individual organizations and lessons to inform future engagements. Emphasis was also laid on how CSOs/WRGs should reflect gender in the work they do particularly in their engagement with Parliament within the lawmaking process. The two-day event ended on 14th Nov. 2024. We are grateful to Global Affairs Canada | Affaires mondiales Canada for the support.
