The ministry has urged all individuals and groups involved in the creative sector, as well as the general public, to visit their website and familiarize themselves with the document. This initiative aligns with the ministry's commitment to a transparent and collaborative approach to national development, encapsulated in the "Black Star Experience."

The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Creative Arts, in the spirit of the Black Star Experience, remains committed to a transparent, inclusive and collaborative approach to building the better Ghana we want.
