About EGP Ghana
The Economic Governance Platform (EGP) is a coalition of Civil Society Organizations championing prudence in the management of public funds in Ghana. Hosted by the Ghana Anti-Corruption Coalition (GACC), our membership includes leading organizations such as IEA, CDD Ghana, ACEP, IMANI Africa, IDEG, GII, OXFAM Ghana, Africa Education Watch, and Tax Justice Network.
Previously known as the Civil Society Platform on the IMF Programme, EGP was formed in November 2014 when eleven CSOs came together to influence and engage both the government and the IMF. The platform was established primarily in response to recurring fiscal indiscipline, particularly during election years.
