The Open Government Partnership (OGP) is a global partnership that brings together government reformers and civil society leaders to create action plans that make governments more inclusive, responsive, and accountable. The Sekondi-Takoradi Metropolitan Assembly (STMA) joined OGP in 2016. This project is designed to report on progress by STMA towards meeting its commitments as stated in their Local Action Plan for 2018-2020.
OGP’s Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) monitors all action plans to ensure government follows through its commitments. Civil society and government leaders use the evaluations to reflect on their own progress and determine if actions have made an impact on peoples’ lives. The Independent Reporting Mechanism of OGP has partnered with Dr. Kofi Takyi Asante of ISSER, to carry out this evaluation. The IRM aims to inform ongoing dialogue around development and implementation of future commitments. For a full description of the IRM’s methodology please visit https://www.opengovpartnership.org/about/independent-reporting-mechanism.
Expected Duration: 2years, 4 months (January 2019 – April 2021)
Principal Investigator: Dr. Kofi Asante
