After two years of programme implementation, STAR-Ghana Phase 2 has made substantial progress in the rollout of key thematic grant calls, the ‘3C&L’ approach and Learning Framework (Communities of Practice and Learning – CoPL). It has successfully launched the STAR-Ghana Foundation in November 2018.

The programme continues to support a wide range of strategic and small grant partner initiatives across the country – engaging with national and district level actors to strengthen civil society engagement with government for increased transparency, accountability and responsiveness.

As experience accumulates from collaboration with grant partners, the establishment of the new Foundation, and application of the 3Cs&L mission (convening, coordination, catalyst and learning), this event created space for the STAR-Ghana team – together with Programme Consortium Partners and other key stakeholders to pause once again for strategic reflection to harvest and apply lessons from practice.

The three-day workshop on the theme: “Lessons for Active Citizenship”, was attended by over 70 participants.
