 Abstract: This report provides an overview of the mixed impact of social media on politics in Ghana. It draws on fieldwork carried out by the authors in Accra and Tamale between February and July 2019, as well as a custom survey in Tamale Central, Tamale North, Tamale South, and Nanton parliamentary constituencies. The report offers a set of policy recommendations for how to counteract some of the negatives and encourage the positives of social media for improving democratic accountability, facilitating intra- and cross-party linkages, and expanding voter outreach.
The research for this report was funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) and an impact fund award by the University of Exeter’s College of Social Sciences and International Studies
