The Center has commenced regional engagements on the Office of the Special Prosecutor (@ospghana), building on insights from the recent National Dialogue and ongoing efforts to strengthen accountability and anti-corruption reforms in Ghana.

The engagements will occur in Tamale, Bolgatanga, Wa, Koforidua, Ho, Takoradi, Cape Coast, Ada, Sunyani, and Kumasi from April 21–30, 2026. The sessions will deepen public understanding of the OSP’s mandate, gather regional perspectives, and support the validation of findings from CDD-Ghana’s 8-year assessment of the OSP.

The dialogues are being organized with support from the Participation, Accountability, and Integrity for a Resilient Democracy (PAIReD) program, commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), co-financed by the European Union (@EuropeInGhana) and the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), and implemented by @giz_gmbh in partnership with the Ministry of Finance.

Democracy is more than just voting. It is an ongoing effort to protect political space, strengthen institutions, and make sure everyone has a fair chance. Fairness, inclusion, participation, and strong institutions all matter. Wishing the people of #Benin 🇧🇯 Peaceful elections

[Maabena 🇬🇭 @addovera]

#Benin goes to the polls tomorrow and West Africa must pay attention. Benin used to be seen as a model democracy in West Africa, but tomorrow’s elections will show if that reputation still holds.
Wishing the people of Benin 🇧🇯 Peaceful elections

[Maabena 🇬🇭 @addovera]

The elections might run smoothly, but what really matters is if they are provide an opening for a return to more transparent, competitive, and credible electoral reforms.

If you had the chance to leave Ghana tomorrow, would you take it?

Among Ghanaians with postsecondary education, 78% say they have considered emigrating. What happens when the country’s most educated citizens are thinking about leaving?

On March 10, we’re bringing research, policy insight, and lived experience together to unpack what this means for Ghana’s future.
