Vice President of Ghana, Professor Naana Jane Opoku-Agyemang, has reaffirmed the government’s commitment to ensuring the passage of the long-awaited Civil Society (Non-Profit) Bill.

This is to regulate and strengthen the operations of Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) across the country.

Speaking at the Ghana Civil Society Forum in Accra, the Vice President emphasized that for civil society to thrive and fulfill its crucial role in national development, a strong legal framework is necessary to guide and protect its work.

“The government is fully committed to creating an enabling environment where CSOs can contribute meaningfully to our democratic and development goals,” she stated.

The two-day event, organised by the Ghana Anti-Corruption Coalition (GACC), brought together civil society leaders, policymakers, and development partners to deliberate on key challenges facing the sector and explore pathways for stronger partnerships in national development.
