2 platforms launched to provide information on public debt Two online platforms aimed at providing citizens with data on Ghana's public debt for greater fiscal transparency and accountability have been launched in Accra.
The "International Monetary Fund (IMF) Bailout Dashboard" and the "Public Debt Tracker" are both to allow for citizens to actively participate in governance providing them with simplified, user-friendly and timely updates on Ghana's public debt management processes.
It is an initiative of the Economic Governance Platform (EGP), a coalition of civil society organisations focused on ensuring the efficient and effective use of public resources to grow Ghana's economy.
Mary Awelana Addah, the Executive Director, Ghana Integrity Initiative (GII), launching the platform, said the platforms were important to provide citizens with real time data on Ghana's fiscal governance.
