As part of the Strategic Partnership to Prevent and Fight Administrative Corruption in Ghana, (the “SPPACG Project”), PEF has introduced an award scheme known as the PEF Public Sector Service Delivery Award to serve as a recognition for public sector institutions reforming their operations for efficient and effective service delivery. The awards ceremony for this year only considered public sector organizations who PEF have been working with under the project so far. 

Eight awards were given in total  covering various sections of the reform and service delivery agenda as follows; award for the adoption of modern service delivery charter, the award for the adoption of innovation in service delivery (including IT), the award for practical approaches to fight and prevent corruption, award for the best corruption reporting mechanism, award for best customer care unit, award for best business friendly and timely delivery of service to the private sector, best reforming agency and the best performing agency.
