The Monitoring and Evaluation Secretariat (MES) at the office of the President, has organized a 5-day workshop for government agencies to develop a framework for implementation of the government’s 13 priority flagship programs.
The purpose of the workshop is to review the Government Results Framework for High Priorities (GRFHP 2017-2020) and develop a new framework that will focus on the flagship programs spanning the period 2021-2024.
In her address to open the workshop at Miklin Hotel in Kumasi, the National Coordinator for the Monitoring & Evaluation Secretariat(M&ES), Gifty Ohene-Konadu said, Akufo- Addo and the Cabinet are systematically monitoring to support the full implementation of the programs to deliver results to the citizens.
She said the participants have been entrusted with a unique responsibility to develop a framework with key performance indicators to facilitate tracking and reporting on the selected programs.
“I expect that by the end of this workshop, we would have developed a framework that would enable each participating MDA to monitor and report on the implementation of your programs.”
Beatrice Kwarteng Osei Asare who represented the Ashanti Regional Minister said, Monitoring & Evaluation helps to keep track of the implementation of projects and programs and the utilisation of resources.
She said Ashanti Region has indeed benefited from the many positive initiatives of the government.
She affirmed that it’s very important the Secretariat works closely with the 16 Regional Coordinating Councils in the proper coordination.
She called on MES to use the existing structures and work closely with the RCCs to ensure proper handling of national programs by some government agencies.
