    South Dayi District

    SOUTH DAYI DISTRICT i Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the South Dayi District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence- based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.
  • The Composite Budget of the Akwapim South District Assembly for the 2016

    The Composite Budget of the Akwapim South District Assembly for the 2016

    REPUBLIC OF GHANA THE COMPOSITE BUDGET OF THE AKWAPIM SOUTH DISTRICT ASSEMBLY FOR THE 2016 FISCAL YEAR 1 1.0 Background The Akwapim South District was carved out of the then Akwapim South Municipality, now Nsawam Adoagiri Municipality in June, 2012 by a Legislative Instrument 2040. It has Aburi as its administrative District Capital which is the second highest habitable town in Ghana. The District is the first district along the Akuapem Ridge of the Eastern part of Ghana 1.1 Population Size and Distribution The 2010 Population and Housing Census put the total population of the district at 37,501 which accounts for about 1.4 percent of the population in the Eastern region. Out of this figure, 48.5 percent are males with 51.5 percent being females. The district has a population growth rate of 3.8 and death rate of 9.5 per 1000 people per annum According to the 2010 Population and Housing Census, the District has about three-quarters (73.4%) of its population residing at rural areas as against 26.6% in the urban set up. This implies, the district is rural in nature and therefore faces myriad of challenges of inadequate social infrastructure and amenities as any rural area in Ghana. 1.2 District Economy 1.2.1 Agriculture The main economic activity in the District is Agriculture. The Climate conditions favour production of variety of crops such as Maize, Cassava, Yam and Vegetables including Tomato, Pepper, Garden Eggs, Okro and Cabbage. Tree crops such as Cocoa, Citrus and Oil Palm are also grown in the District.

    REGIONAL ANALYTICAL REPORT VOLTA REGION Ghana Statistical Service June, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Ghana Statistical Service Prepared by: Martin K. Yeboah Augusta Okantey Emmanuel Nii Okang Tawiah Edited by: N.N.N. Nsowah-Nuamah Chief Editor: Nii Bentsi-Enchill ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT There cannot be any meaningful developmental activity without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, and socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. The Kilimanjaro Programme of Action on Population adopted by African countries in 1984 stressed the need for population to be considered as a key factor in the formulation of development strategies and plans. A population census is the most important source of data on the population in a country. It provides information on the size, composition, growth and distribution of the population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of resources, government services and the allocation of government funds among various regions and districts for education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users with an analytical report on the 2010 PHC at the regional level to facilitate planning and decision-making. This follows the publication of the National Analytical Report in May, 2013 which contained information on the 2010 PHC at the national level with regional comparisons. Conclusions and recommendations from these reports are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based policy formulation, planning, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programs.
