MONITORING OF BENEFICIARIES OF THE DISABILITY FUND
As part of efforts to empower Persons with Disability, the Government of Ghana in 2005 introduced the Disability Fund (currently 3% of the District Assembly’s Common Fund) which is deducted from the District Assembly’s Common Fund and paid into a separate account under the District Assembly, the Disability Fund Management Committee has therefore established an effective monitoring system to ensure deserving beneficiaries utilise the fund to minimise poverty among persons living with disability.
