I – 2DP VISITS MAURITIUS IN SEARCH OF AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO DEVELOPMENT –NOVEMBER, 2012

Following a thorough research into establishing an integrated approach to development in Ghana, I – 2DP came to a conclusion that the need for a more effective collaboration between government and the private sector was imperative to help remove a number of challenges impeding  Ghana’s strides towards the achievement of sustainable development.

In its search for a possible economic model which addresses that development phenomenon, I - 2DP was  motivated to undertake a working visit to Mauritius in November 2012. An African country with impressive economic development indices, Mauritius’ economic success has been mainly achieved through a well crafted and rigorously executed collaboration between the public and private sectors.

The visit, which was effected by the Head of the Development Section of I – 2DP, Mr Alexander Kwame Archine, concentrated on the two main areas of Public /Private Partnership and Corporate Social Responsibility and how the two impact o the socio-economic well being of the citizens.

I – 2DP intends to share the findings of the visit to Mauritius with key stakeholders in Ghana and generate a discussion which will eventually yield good and practical ideas on the way forward for Ghana’s economic development.
