Through component 4 of the Ghana Growth and Poverty Reduction Support Program (GGPRSP), CIDA is providing targeted technical assistance to the Government of Ghana (GoG) in areas of need that are jointly identified. This includes capacity development initiatives in areas such as strategic planning, monitoring and evaluation, policy development and analysis, public financial management, public sector reform, integration of environmental issues, and strengthening equality between women and men. Canada is working in close cooperation with other donors and the GoG to strengthen the effectiveness of technical assistance, and to enhance the success of the other components of GGPRSP. Component 4 aims to improve GoG capacity in key areas that the GoG identifies as requiring development partner expertise and support. It is multi-sectoral in scope, but focuses on areas that impact government functions, such as planning, monitoring, oversight etc. The technical assistance provided aims to enhance the GoG’s ability to meet the objectives in its Growth and Poverty Reduction Strategy (GPRS II) and subsequent national development plans. Activities in this component are expected to start in 2012.
