   Cultural Initiatives Support Programme - Welcome to CISP
About Uspdf print preview send to friend
The Cultural Initiatives Support Programme, CISP, is the result of a two million Euro European Development Fund (EDF) grant, which was provided by the European Union to the Government of Ghana to support the cultural sector. The CISP was prompted by the need to make up for the shortfalls and weaknesses in implementing Ghana’s Cultural Policy.

The work of the CISP is undertaken by a Programme Management Unit on behalf of the Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning and the National Commission on Culture and supervised by a Steering Committee.
