Women in Ghana continue to face major challenges in political participation despite election progress made so far, the national consultative forum held in Accra has revealed.
The forum organised by NETRIGHT in partnership with STAR-Ghana Foundation was to review the 2024 elections and push for gender-responsive governance and inclusive democracy.
It brought together stakeholders from the political parties, civil society groups, youth organisations, the media, and development partners.
The Programme Manager at NETRIGHT, Ms Cynthia Sunu, noted that while Ghana has a strong reputation for holding peaceful elections, the reality of women's representation in governance remains worrying.
