Bg imlving tha district's population in 'the planning md implementation procasrer, the project seska to bring about tht babvioral changes and resource comPitwnts required to muimiza benefits md to make the davelopmrot effort self-~ustaining, The project supp~rtsthrecent -- changes in the Cove-t of Ghana's (COG) rural develo~mentstrategy and the inrtitutio~l arrqemntr In support of tht stratrgy. The guidelines to the new uatiorul devalopment plan (1975-79) highlights the wed for promo, that raise the rtandard of li- of the rural poor. The rural poor are generally defined ar mall fanuerr.cultivating on 10 acres or lerr, and the aon-farm poor of Prhich a large herare der and unemplyed middle rchool lunrs. It is argued in the new dmlopmurt plan that a strategy of raising employment opportunities, real per capita incomes and the quality of life in nu61 area8 will reduce 'the drift of ths rural populatiou to urban centers and will strengthen the interlinkages between the rural aad urban sectors, These processes are now recognized as important preconditions for the attainment of national developmrnt objectives. Tc implement this strategy, the GOG has recently made change8 in its local govement system. Because of dissatisfaction with past gwerxmat performance (national and local) in the rural area8 combined with the recognition of the need to bring devalopmgat decisionmaking closer to the local population, the gwemnt hru adopted a program to decentralize and streamline its administrative machine-7. The prima- innovation in the new local govermmnt system has been the creation of district- councils. Supported by a system of local couucils and dwelopmurt cosritteer and by finan- cial and technical support from regional .ad national yencier, the dirtrict councfls have the rerpoasibility for pl- and Implementing a comprehensive dmlopmnt pmgro~that brinlr the rural population into the growth process. By gradually devolving ptmr .ad rasourcas (i.e. initially sola rating authority in the district d latrr control war central govanmat funding) to diatrict councils, it is anticipatad that: they will davelop tha capacity to initiata davalopmant activitias tailored to the specific naeds and potantlala of axeas within &air districts. Tha current rural davalopnun!: strategy of tha COG is cmistent with the naeds identified in USAID's Ghana ~uricul&ral Sector Assessment and with AID'S broad policy objactives. Indaad USAID has systematically designed a series of intar-related projects (e.g. in agriculture, health and family plahniug, management training, non-formal education and intermediate technoiogy) to support the COCts desira to help the rural poor. Morewer, + will be seec below in the Project Description, the GOG's mova towards decentralization- (in particular, investing resporrsibilify in the Disnict Councils for cwpraheruive development plaaning.md impla- mantation) provides a uniqua opportunity for USAID to asrist COG to intagrate the inputs AU~knowledge gainad from thrra projacts with Gharulau resources and haow how h support of tha dmlopmant of a specific geographic area--the Atebubu Dirtrict.

These prograrnr have created high upectatiom among the rural population about *&at the govern- ment should do for than. With this new strategy, the government wish.; to break this growing dependrncy relatiunship and to drvelop thr capabilities of local people to solve their om problems, Loal and ~trtionalofficials recogniza that the strzting point is to find ways to raise the incomes and production of large nders of rural Fnhabitants, Howwar, thara is little experiancr on the mathods for accomplishing this.

There is a . strong history of self-help endeavors in many parts of rural Ghana, but there haa been little success ia davaloplng viable local organi- zations which have the financial and technical capabilities to contribdte to davelopmant. Tharr is a naad to exparbent with new approrches to local orgaaimatioual development, particularly in those areas where there are high disparities in land holdings and income, A major purpose of this project is to creata a gruup action capabilitp so as to reduce those dirparitier.

  • Small and Medium Forest Enterprises in Ghana
    Small and Medium Forest Enterprises in Ghana Small and medium forest enterprises (SMFEs) serve as the main or additional source of income for more than three million Ghanaians and can be broadly categorised into wood forest products, non-wood forest products and forest services. Many of these SMFEs are informal, untaxed and largely invisible within state forest planning and management. Pressure on the forest resource within Ghana is growing, due to both domestic and international demand for forest products and services. The need to improve the sustainability and livelihood contribution of SMFEs has become a policy priority, both in the search for a legal timber export trade within the Voluntary Small and Medium Partnership Agreement (VPA) linked to the European Union Forest Law Enforcement, Governance and Trade (EU FLEGT) Action Plan, and in the quest to develop a national Forest Enterprises strategy for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD). This sourcebook aims to shed new light on the multiple SMFE sub-sectors that in Ghana operate within Ghana and the challenges they face. Chapter one presents some characteristics of SMFEs in Ghana. Chapter two presents information on what goes into establishing a small business and the obligations for small businesses and Ghana Government’s initiatives on small enterprises. Chapter three presents profiles of the key SMFE subsectors in Ghana including: akpeteshie (local gin), bamboo and rattan household goods, black pepper, bushmeat, chainsaw lumber, charcoal, chewsticks, cola, community-based ecotourism, essential oils, ginger, honey, medicinal products, mortar and pestles, mushrooms, shea butter, snails, tertiary wood processing and wood carving.

  • Kwame Arhin-The Missionary Role.Pdf
    ARTICLES THE MISSIONARY ROLE ON THE GOLD COAST AND IN ASHANTI: REVEREND F .A . RAMSEYER A N D THE BRITISH TAKE-OVER OF ASHANTI 1869-1894 by Kwame Arhin* Introductory The Reverend F .A . Ramseyer was probably one of the most remarkable missionaries who ever worked on the Gold Coast and Ashanti (modern Ghana). He founded the Basel (Presbyterian) Church in Kumasi which bears his name. There is a 'Ramseyer House' in Ashanti's leading Secondary School, Prempeh College, at Kumasi, which is a joint enterprise of the Methodist and Presbyterian Churches of Ghana. Ramseyer is immortalized in the book he wrote with his fellow captive, S.J. Kuhne , ^ of their captivity in Kumasi, the Ashanti capital (1869-1874), while the Ashanti still remember him in the persistent legend that his captors go no atopre that is to say, meted to him the extreme punishment of forcing him to dance while carrying the large fontomfrom drum. That legend is only a measure of his sufferings as a captive and prisoner in Kumasi. Nowhere in his book does Ramseyer mention this extreme punishment which was given only to the greatest criminal offenders. I am concerned here with the part that Ramseyer played in the campaign for the Gold Coast Government to take over Ashanti in the early eighteen- nineties. But it is certain that to understand his 'concern' about the Ashanti, a few words about his encounter with them and his life among them at Kumasi, as well as the background to the campaign, are necessary. Ramseyer in C aptivity (1869-1874) Ramseyer had at first not intended a missionary sojourn in Ashanti.

  • Atebubu Amantin
    ATEBUBU-AMANTEN DISTRICT i Copyright (c) 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 Atebubu Amanten 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.

  • Site Map Brief Introduction to Kintampo
    Site Map Brief Introduction to Kintampo HDSS The Kintampo north and south districts (previously simply referred to as the Kintampo district) are two of the 19 districts currently in the Brong Ahafo Region of Ghana. The Kintampo HDSS area (constituting of Kintampo North Municipality and Kintampo south district), has a surface area of 7,162 square kilometers. It is bounded to the north by the Black Volta, west by the Wenchi and Tain districts, in the East by the Atebubu District and to the south by Techiman and south-east by the Nkoranza north and south districts respectively. The main indigenous ethnic groups are of the Bono, and the Mo origin. There is however a large permanent immigrant population from the northern Regions of Ghana (Dagarbas, Dagombas and Konkombas) who are mostly farmers. A few Dangbes and Ewes who are mainly fishermen are settled along the banks of the Black Volta. Settlements are mainly concentrated along the main trunk road linking the district capitals (Kintampo/Jema) to northern Region. There are 24 public health facilities made up of 15 Community-based Health Planning and Services (CHPS) compounds, 7 health centre and 2 hospitals. The hospitals are located at the district capitals. In the private sector, there are 3 private clinics and 3 private maternity homes In April 2010, The Kintampo HDSS established a satellite HDSS (Ahafo Mining Area Health and Demographic Surveillance System, AMAHDSS) in Tano North and Asutifi Districts of the Newmont Ghana Gold mining concession area. It is to monitor population and health dynamics in a mining area.

The end use of water is essential for every inhabitant and for a wide range of economic and informal sector activities Pollution of water bodies through the use of toxic chemicals by fishermen, farming near and in river beds, higher temperatures and other anthropogenic factors have negative effects on water resources thereby limiting their economic potentials towards sustainable socioeconomic development. There are regulations regarding the sustainable use of water resources in Ghana. However, these regulations are not being adequately adhered to.

  • FOOD CROP MARKETING in ATEBUBU DISTRICT, Ghanat
    v. Roy SOUTHWORTH, WILLIAM O. JONES, AND SCOTT R. PEARSON* FOOD CROP MARKETING IN ATEBUBU DISTRICT, GHANAt The traditional system of marketing food crops in Ghana, as in, much of tropical Mrica, has recently been under considerable stress. Much maligned, this marketing system has variously been charged with being ineffi­ cient, disorganized, unresponsive, and oligopsonistic. At the same time, private wholesale traders have been vilified in the press, often being accused of hoarding and of cheating innocent farmers or powerless consumers. J In response to this perceived state of affairs, many governments, including Ghana's, have estab­ lished parastatal corporations to market ftlodcrops, sometimes (though not in Ghana) possessing a legal monopoly of this trade . ..
