Role of Civil Society Organisations in Promoting Participation in Basic Education Delivery in the Talensi-Nabdam District of Ghana

ABSTRACT

Civil society organisation (CSOs) have been working in the Talensi Nabdam District to promote and strengthen participation to ensure that resources meant for basic education delivery are fully accounted for and used as agreed. They have designed programmes to improve primary and secondary stakeholders involvement and commitment in basic education delivery. However, teacher workload, poor quality and participation in management of education delivery are still issues of great concern. This study was therefore conducted to examine the role of CSOs in promoting participation in basic education in the Talensi- Nabdam District of the Upper East Region. This study purposively sampled 269 respondents. Data were drawn from both primary and secondary sources. The study revealed that there was some amount of participation in school governance at the basic education delivery and women and girls played active role in the process. Quite often, teachers went for seminars and workshops organised by CSOs. It is recommended that seminars and fora should be held in communities with local language used as medium of communication; CSOs, GES and communities should ensure that meetings and workshops that would require the participation of teachers are held during weekends, holidays or after instructional hours.
