MOI celebrates International Day for Universal Access to Information

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

In a landmark celebration of the International Day for Universal Access to Information (IDUAI), Ghana commemorates its significant strides towards transparency and accountability.

The theme for this year’s IDUAI, “The Importance of the Online Space for Access to Information,” underscores the pivotal role of the internet in ensuring equitable access to information.

Ghana’s journey towards establishing the Right to Information (RTI) law culminated in January 2020, marking a two-decade effort to foster transparency and combat corruption across all public institutions. Passed on March 26, 2019, the RTI law has been a beacon of hope for citizens seeking open and accountable governance.

Ghana’s Ministry of Information through Minister Kojo Oppong Nkrumah, in a statement on this momentous occasion, affirmed Ghana’s commitment to advancing the cause of universal access to information. He highlighted the groundbreaking initiative known as the Online Records Management System (ORMS), slated for deployment by 2024.

“ORMS represents a significant leap forward in ensuring seamless online RTI requests, enhancing transparency, and empowering citizens in their quest for information,” the statement read.

He expressed his optimism that ORMS would further cement Ghana’s position as a beacon of transparency and accountability in Africa and the world. He emphasized that this initiative demonstrates the government’s unwavering dedication to fostering a more transparent and responsible society.

As Ghana joins the international community in celebrating the International Day for Universal Access to Information, it stands as a testament to the nation’s commitment to the principles of openness, transparency, and the right of its citizens to access information. With the implementation of ORMS on the horizon, Ghana paves the way for an even more transparent and accountable future.
