  • Disability Accessibility Audit Report
    ACCESSIBILITY AUDIT ON BASIC AND SECOND CYCLE SCHOOLS STRUCTURES IN THE HO MUNICIPALITY This report gives analysis of baseline survey and provides up-to-date baseline data/evidence of inaccessibility nature of several basic and second cycle schools structures in the Ho Municipality. There are a total of 340 basic and second cycle schools in the Ho Municipality. VOLPHIG surveyed 216 of these schools. Analysis of responses from authorities of the schools surveyed indicated that 94.4% of the schools have no provision of access for persons with disabilities. Majority of the schools also have poor access to their toilet, urinals, libraries and ICT centre for persons with disabilities. Some schools have verandas and walkways that have stairs in between them and cannot be used by persons with disabilities. The findings indicated gross abuse of Sections 6 and 60 of the Persons with Disability Act, 2006 (Act, 715), which mandates owners and occupiers of public buildings including schools to provide easy access for persons with disabilities. The report draws on the findings to provide recommendations for improving access to schools structures in the Ho Municipality for persons with disabilities. Introduction VOLPHIG is a registered NGO managed for and by people with disabilities in the Volta Region. The organization is focused on working across disability to build capacity of cross disability self-help groups at the grassroots level in Ghana. VOLPHIG had received funding from the STAR-Ghana - Strengthening Transparency, Accountability and Responsiveness in Ghana www.star-ghana.org to carry out vigorous advocacy to ensure school structures in the Ho Municipality are made accessible for use by persons with disability.

Rose Elder, D.M.A., Associate Professor Humanities and Social Sciences, Coordinator Ghana Research and Education Abroad, Coordinator Community Tutors at Cornerstone Elementary School, Coordinator The Ohio State University ATI, Wooster OH [email protected] ABSTRACT Since time immemorial the Èwè of Ghana’s Volta Region have relied on storytelling to teach and rehearse their community values. (See Figure 1) Within the framework of the storytelling performance, audience members interrupt the story with songs that lead to dancing, enliven sleepy listeners, and add each song leader’s interpretive ‘take’ on the story. Singing figures prominently because it allows community participation and, Figure 1: Ghana’s Volta indeed, reverses the artist-audience roles. During the 2016 Ohio Region Map State ATI Ghana Research and Education Abroad tour, undergraduate and faculty researchers interviewed storytellers about the current role of storytelling in Èwè communities in the regional capital Ho and surrounding towns. Because of their liveliness, the group quickly learned a half- dozen storytelling interludes, which increased their ability to participate in later storytelling events and their understanding of the Èwè language. This white paper for the Center for Global Studies at the University of Illinois Champaign-Urbana briefly discusses the Ghana Research and Education Abroad, aspects of the storytelling songs we collected, available resources for studying 1 Center for Global Studies University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ISRL Èwè (Ghana) Storytelling Songs Elder, D.

    ENGAGEMENT OF A FIRM FOR DATA COLLECTION IN THE VOLTA REGION OF GHANA FOR THE GHANA NATIONAL HOUSEHOLD REGISTRY (GNHR) P164603 CR No 6337-GH REF No.: GH-MOGCSP-190902-CS-QCBS I. BACKGROUND & CONTEXT The Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection (MGCSP) as a responsible institution to coordinate the implementation of the country’s social protection system has proposed the establishment of the Ghana National Household Registry (GNHR), as a tool that serves to assist social protection programs to identify, prioritize, and select households living in vulnerable conditions to ensure that different social programs effectively reach their target populations. The GNHR involves the registry of households and collection of basic information on their social- economic status. The data from the registry can then be shared across programs. In this context, the GNHR will have the following specific objectives: a) Facilitate the categorization of potential beneficiaries for social programs in an objective, homogeneous and equitable manner. b) Support the inter-institutional coordination to improve the impact of social spending and the elimination of duplication c) Allow the design and implementation of accurate socioeconomic diagnoses of poor people, to support development of plans, and the design and development of specific programs targeted to vulnerable and/or low-income groups. d) Contribute to institutional strengthening of the MoGCSP, through the implementation of a reliable and central database of vulnerable groups. For the implementation of the Ghana National Household Registry, the MoGCSP has decided to use a household evaluation mechanism based on a Proxy Means Test (PMT) model, on which welfare is determined using indirect indicators that collectively approximate the socioeconomic status of individuals or households.
