Policy LINK Ghana – Senior Gender Equity and Social Inclusion Manager

Policy LINK in Ghana

USAID Feed the Future Ghana Policy LINK Activity is a five-year activity with the overall objective of fostering behavior change that strengthens the capacity and ability of Ghanaian stakeholders to participate in a more transparent, inclusive, and evidence-based agriculture and food system policy process that leads to improved food and nutrition outcomes and broad-based economic growth. Specifically, the activity will facilitate the transition towards a policy development paradigm driven by multiple stakeholders.

This approach to policymaking will strengthen the capacities of Ghana’s main agricultural policy system actors and institutions and support them to engage stakeholders traditionally excluded from decision-making, including academia, financial institutions, the judiciary, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and private sector representatives from the national, regional, and local levels.

This approach is underpinned by Policy LINK’s overarching theory of change, which focuses on increasing human and social capital, engaging policy system actors in collaborative processes, and developing mechanisms for collaborative governance and dynamic learning systems and platforms to sustain collective action.

The Policy LINK Activity has its main office in Accra and a subnational office in Tamale to support efforts in the USAID Feed the Future Zone of Influence (ZOI) regions—17 districts in the Northern, North East, Upper East, and Upper West regions. This operating model will maximize engagement with a diverse set of key agricultural stakeholders and institutions at the national, regional, and community levels.
