History
The party's formation was followed by a declaration on 28 December 2011 by Papa Kwesi Nduom for progressive and independent-minded people to come together and form an alternative political movement to compete for political power for a major transformation of the Ghanaian society.
The interim leadership of the progressive movement began a nationwide campaign to recruit members to form Interim Regional and Constituency Executives. The team visited the then ten regions of Ghana.
