JPASS Annual Report 2016
This report provides an overview of work done by the JPASS project in 2016. J-PASS was initiated in September 2015 with the overall aim of building the capacity of political parties to function effectively as institutions of governance.
Our Elections Support
In preparation for a successful Elections 2016 in Ghana, UNDP supported several initiatives that sought to boost public confidence and participation in elections, and increase trust in political parties and election results.
Tapping the sun to increase rural incomes
Through a solar-powered irrigation project supported by the Energy Commission of Ghana and UNDP, smallholder farmers in the four communities of Tamalgu, Nakpanduri, Datoyili and Fooshegu can now irrigate their farm fields regularly.
What we do
UNDP is the UN's global development network, an organization advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge, experience and resources to help people build a better life. We are on the ground in some 170 countries and territories, working with them on their own solutions to global and national development challenges. As they develop local capacity, they draw on the people of UNDP and our wide range of partners.
