Ghana: G2G Implementation Letter

This Implementation Letter is an early example of a cost reimbursement agreement for implementation of the National Literacy Acceleration Project (NALAP) in Ghana. Written and executed in 2009 before USAID Forward guidance and the Education Strategy Goal 1 were instituted, USAID Ghana expertise has since grown in the use of G2G assistance modalities in education. This early experience serves as an excellent foundation for USAID Ghana’s current focus on improving national reading outcomes in partnership with the Ministry of Education and Ghana Education Service through extensive use of G2G assistance.

Under the leadership of the Bureau for Economic Growth, Education and Environment’s (E3) Education Office, the G2G Education Toolkit has been developed to provide this support. The Toolkit includes a literature review; an analysis of lessons learned and best practice; an analytic framework and roadmap; operational tools; and case studies. Additionally, sample G2G operational documents from Missions currently undertaking government-to-government activities are available to guide field staff.
