After four years of programme implementation, STAR-Ghana Phase 2 has made substantial progress in the roll-out of key thematic grant calls including the Election 2020 Call, 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 the 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 affords the STAR-Ghana team – together with Programme Consortium Partners and other key stakeholders, the opportunity to pause once again for strategic reflection to harvest and apply lessons from practice.

The event was held in Accra from Tuesday 25^th to Wednesday 26^th February 2020 on the theme: “Celebrating success; resourcing active citizenship for the future”
