\n<\/strong>With funding provided by the World Bank, the Government of Ghana (GoG), through the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development (MLGRD) is implementing the Social Opportunities Project (SOP). The overall goal of the project is to support Ghana’s Social Protection Strategy through; developing a labour intensive public works program as a rural safety net instrument in target Districts across the country (majority of which are in the three northern regions) to increase cash income for the rural poor during Agricultural off-season; and supporting the Governments Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP)\u00a0program.<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>(i) Rationalization of National Social Protection Strategy (ii) Labour Intensive Public Works (LIPWs); (iii) Support to the Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) Program; (iv) Capacity Building; and (v) Project Management and Coordination<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The objectives of the project are to:
\n(i) Support public works expected to create employment with priority for the poorest districts of the country,
\n(ii) Support incrementally, the scaling up of the Governments conditional cash transfer program (LEAP) which provides social grants to the poorest households in return for participation in education and health services; and
\n(iii) Develop the capacity of the government to implement safety net programs, both at the central and decentralized levels<\/p>\n
\n<\/strong>The project is managed at policy and technical co-coordinating level of a National Project Steering Committee (NPSC). At the implementation level, co-ordination is the responsibility of the National Co-ordination office (NCO), with its head office in Accra and Regional Coordination offices in Tamale, Bolgatanga, Wa, Kumasi, and Accra is responsible for defined geographical areas. Sub-project implementation, however, is the responsibility of District Assemblies and their lower structures with timely and efficient back-stopping provided by the RCCs (RPCU) staff and relevant line ministries\/agencies<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
