Ghana's Supreme Court upholds Section 104, while the controversial anti-LGBTQ bill awaits presidential approval. Our intern, Agnes Azalimah, explores the implications for human rights, public health, and Ghana's international standing. Read her analysis on why opposing discriminatory laws is crucial for our democracy.

This afternoon, the delegation presented highlights of Africans views on democracy, globalism and migration to representatives of @USAID, State Department (@StateDept) representatives, and non-governmental organisations at a convening hosted by the United States Institute of Peace (@USIP).

[CDD-Ghana @CDDGha]

In 1999, @afrobarometer's first survey in Ghana painted a vivid picture of democratic ideals. Back then, democracy meant freedom - half of Ghanaians highlighted civil liberties and personal freedoms (29%) and government by the people (23%) as core values.

Fast forward more than 20 years, 76% of Ghanaians describe their country as either a "full democracy" or one with "minor problems," and 51% express satisfaction with how their democracy functions.
