Ghana

The Republic of Ghana is a member state of the African Leaders Malaria Alliance. We support Ghana in the implementation of the country’s scorecard tools.

Scorecard tools

Scorecard management tools are country-owned tools that provide a snapshot of the country’s national and subnational health performance. The colour-coded scorecard tool helps track performance of priority indicators, identify bottlenecks or gaps, increase accountability, and enhance decision making to drive action.

We support Ghana with 4 scorecard tools:

  • malaria scorecard tool
  • reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health (RMNCAH) scorecard tool
  • nutrition scorecard tool
  • community scorecard tool

Malaria scorecard tool

Ghana’s malaria scorecard tool was developed in 2017 by the National Malaria Control Programme, with support from ALMA and other partners. Since the introduction of the scorecard tool, we have been supporting the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service in strengthening their malaria scorecard tool.

RMNCAH scorecard tool

Ghana’s RMNCAH scorecard tool was developed in 2015 by the Ministry of Health, with support from ALMA and other partners. Since the introduction of the scorecard tool, we have been supporting the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service in strengthening their RMNCAH scorecard tool.

Nutrition scorecard tool

Ghana’s nutrition scorecard tool was developed in 2021 by the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service, with support from ALMA and other partners.

Community scorecard tool

Ghana’s community scorecard tool was developed in 2018 by the Ministry of Health and the Ghana Health Service, with support from ALMA and other partners.

Community scorecard tools are participatory tools used to collect feedback from community members to assess the quality of care, increase accountability, inform actions to improve local health services and enhance community ownership and engagement.
