The National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) is ramping up its efforts to educate the youth, both within schools and in out-of-school settings, on the 1992 Constitution. This initiative is part of a comprehensive campaign to instill a sense of civic responsibility among Ghanaians, with a special emphasis on the importance of environmental stewardship for sustainable development. Kathleen Addy, Chairperson of the NCCE, underscored the critical need for Ghanaians to be conscious of their civic duties, particularly in relation to protecting the environment. She emphasized that corrupt practices which harm the environment must be actively resisted to safeguard the nation's future. "Our environment is our heritage, and its protection is a shared responsibility," she remarked. The NCCE asserts that empowering women and youth to fully engage in national affairs is essential for achieving the broader goals of peace, prosperity, and sustainable development.
