Countries around the world are investing in the improvement of policy capacity in their public services. G hana has made similar investments during the last decade, in order to achieve the government's far‐reaching policy agenda of transforming G hana's economy. The G hana C entral G overnance P roject was initiated during the year 2000 in order to develop a skilled civil service, capable of moving coherently and effectively from policy and strategy to detailed policy options, budgeted programs and concrete results. This reform was deemed essential to the realization of the government's ambitious agenda.
