    Description
    The Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection (MGCSP), has a core mandate and leading role in the planning, implementation and coordination of social protection policies in Ghana. In particular, the Ministry’s Directorate for Policy, Planning and Monitoring and Evaluation is responsible for assessing the progress in implementation of the National Social Protection Strategy (NSPS). An updated 2012 NSPS aimed at bringing the multitude of social protection programmes under a common umbrella. However, the NSPS 2012 had not been approved as from June 2014 when the MGCSP approached SOCIEUX. Mobilised experts addressed key issues for the approval of the updated NSPS including coordination local stakeholders. The reviewed with their peers functions of the social security agencies and provided recommendations on organisational issues, more specifically on coordination and decentralisation of social protection service provision. They facilitated a workshop for high-ranking civil servants and representatives of NGOs. Finally, they contributed to the reflections of a high-level working group by sharing social protection policy development in the EU.
