In an effort to bolster civic engagement in Ghana's constitutional review process, the Institute for Democratic Governance (IDEG) hosted a workshop at the University for Development Studies in Tamale, providing citizens, particularly at the grassroots, with the capacity to effectively engage in the constitutional review process.
The workshop, organised under the theme, "Bridging the Gap: Citizen Engagement in Ghana's Constitutional Review Process," was part of IDEG's ongoing mission to foster grassroots involvement in governance and institutional reforms.
It brought together diverse participants from across the five regions in Northern Ghana.
At the session, which was facilitated by Mr Douglas Quartey, a Development Consultant at IDEG, participants were introduced to concepts on effective advocacy, including the development of position papers as a critical tool for citizens aiming to influence policy during the review process.
