The Economics of the Atewa Forest Range, Ghana
THE ECONOMICS OF THE ATEWA FOREST RANGE, GHANA Living water from the mountain Protecting Atewa water resources THE ECONOMICS OF THE ATEWA FOREST RANGE, GHANA Living water from the mountain Protecting Atewa water resources DISCLAIMER This report was commissioned by IUCN NL and A Rocha Ghana as part of the ‘Living Water from the mountain - Protecting Atewa water resources’ project. The study received support of the Forestry Commission, the Water Resource Commission and the NGO Coalition Against Mining Atewa (CONAMA) and financial assistance of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs as part of the Ghana – Netherlands WASH program. The findings, interpretations and conclusions expressed here are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs, IUCN NL, A Rocha Ghana, the Forestry Commission, the Water Resource Commission or the NGO Coalition Against Mining Atewa (CONAMA). Any errors are purely the responsibility of the authors. Not all economic values presented in this study are captured by market mechanisms or translated to financial streams; the values of ecosystem services calculated in this study should therefore not be interpreted as financial values. Economic values represent wellbeing of stakeholders and do not represent the financial return of an investment case. The study should not be used as the basis for investments or related actions and activities without obtaining specific professional advice.

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. -
Prevalence of Onchocerciasis and Associated Clinical Manifestations in Selected Hypoendemic Communities in Ghana Following Long
Otabil et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2019) 19:431 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-019-4076-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Prevalence of onchocerciasis and associated clinical manifestations in selected hypoendemic communities in Ghana following long-term administration of ivermectin Kenneth Bentum Otabil1,2* , Samuel Fosu Gyasi1, Esi Awuah3, Daniels Obeng-Ofori4, Robert Junior Atta-Nyarko5, Dominic Andoh5, Beatrice Conduah5, Lawrence Agbenyikey5, Philip Aseidu5, Comfort Blessing Ankrah5, Abdul Razak Nuhu5 and H. D. F. H. Schallig2 Abstract Background: Onchocerciasis is a neglected tropical disease which is still of immense major public health concern in several areas of Africa and the Americas. The disease manifests either as ocular or as dermal onchocerciasis with several symptoms including itching, nodules, skin thickening, visual impairment and blindness. Ivermectin has been an efficient microfilaricide against the causative agent of the disease (Onchocerca volvulus) but reports from some areas in Africa suggest the development of resistance to this drug. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of onchocerciasis and associated clinical conditions frequently associated with the disease in three endemic communities in Ghana which have been subjected to 18 to 20 rounds of mass drug administration of ivermectin. This was to help determine whether or not onchocerciasis persists in these communities. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was adopted. Three communities (Tanfiano, Senya and Kokompe) in the Nkoranza North District of Ghana where mass drug administration of ivermectin had been ongoing for more than two decades were selected for the study. The population was randomly sampled and 114 participants recruited for the study based on the eligibility criteria. -
Akwapim South District
AKWAPIM SOUTH DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service i 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 Akwapim South 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. -
From Conflict to Collaboration: Atewa Forest Governance
From conflict to collaboration: Atewa Forest governance by Victor Mawutor Agbo A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Geography Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2019 ©Victor Mawutor Agbo 2019 Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Many countries are addressing the problem of deforestation through sustainable ecosystem management collaborations. Successful ones have recognized local participation as being essential to any conservation effort. In Ghana, forests and their ecotourism attributes have served as a pull to many international adventure and eco-tourists but unfortunately, the country’s forest cover has experienced significant exploitation over the years leading to the less desirability of these nature-based attractions. Despite its designation as a protected area for biodiversity and watershed services, the Atewa Forest in Ghana has been significantly impacted by humans. The problem of forest degradation has increased over the years. This is mainly due to the many tree and livelihood conflicts in most forest communities. The Government of Ghana has outlined its plans to mine the Atewa Range Forest Reserve as part of a national infrastructure development programme which has received a lot of opposition from many civil society groups, NGOs and professional institutions, stating that to mine the Atewa Range Forest Reserve, the entire forest would have to be removed. -
