Grassroots Open Government Using New Digital Tools

Penplusbytes, with support from Making All Voices Count, is rolling out the “Grassroots Open Government Using New Digital Tools” project intended to enhance communication and information sharing between citizens and the local government in two Districts of Ghana (Tamale Metropolitan Assembly in the Northern Region and Dangbe (Ada) East District Assembly in the Greater Accra Region) in the area of public service delivery especially health, education and sanitation using a collaborative and integrated approach. It is expected that, “Grassroots Open Government Using New Digital Tools” will ensure citizens have a voice in how resources allocated for development are prudently utilised to eradicate poverty and stimulate wealth creation using both new digital tools and face-to-face interventions such as public forums and community radio.
