  • 2020 Sdgs Budget Report Contents
    Ghana’s 2020 SDGs Budget Report Contents Minister’s Foreword 03 Introduction 04 Methodology 05 Policy Initiatives 16 Goal Funding 17 Conclusion 71 Bibliography 72 73 Endnotes SDGs Budget Report 2020 - 01 SDGs Budget Report 2020 - 01 Minister’s Foreword I am pleased to present the 2020 SDGs Budget Report which provides an overview of the government of Ghana’s resource allocation towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) during the 2020 fiscal year and provides the opportunity to review actual expenditures against financial allocations in 2019. The year 2020 was an extraordinary one. With the world beset by the COVID-19 pandemic and its subsequent socio-economic impact on all nations; the Sustainable Development Goals have suffered significant setbacks over the last seven months. Some of the Global Goals, such as, Poverty Eradication, Zero Hunger and Climate Action have retrogressed or stalled. The government of Ghana has therefore been compelled to review and significantly adjust the 2020 national budget to reflect the remedial measures taken to protect citizens, livelihoods, enterprises and industries as well as facilitate sustainable recovery. These adjustments impacted the government’s initial priority spending for 2020 thereby influencing spending on specific goals. For example, the Ministry of Health’s expenditure increased from GHC6.5 billion to GHc8.1 billion as a result of the emergency measures taken to ensure effective case management of COVID-19 and the continuous provision of safe non-COVID-19 related services to the population. Through the Coronavirus Alleviation Programme and the Ghana CARES Obaatan Pa programme, the Parliament of Ghana has approved the spending of GHC1,203,702,000 and GHC2,028,000,000 respectively to ensure decent work and economic growth, a reduction in inequalities, protection for industries and the facilitation of innovation and infrastructure development among others.

Stringer 2 1 Department of Environmental Science, College of Science, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, PMB, University Post Office, Kumasi, Ghana 2 Sustainability Research Institute, School of Earth and Environment, University of Leeds, Leeds LS2 9JT, UK; [email protected] (A.J.D.); [email protected] (L.C.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +233-505-255-247 Received: 9 October 2017; Accepted: 13 November 2017; Published: 18 November 2017 Abstract: Climate Compatible Development (CCD) aims to deliver adaptation and mitigation without compromising development progress. To date, adaptation, mitigation and development related to key climate-sensitive sectors have often been treated separately. This paper uses qualitative document analysis, content analysis, expert interviews and a multi-stakeholder workshop to: examine the extent to which policies in climate-sensitive sectors align in framing adaptation, mitigation and development action; and identify key areas of policy coherence in Ghana. The paper answers the following questions: (i) To what extent are Ghana’s agriculture, energy, water, forest and wildlife sector policies aligned with climate adaptation, mitigation and development? (ii) What is the extent of policy coherence amongst climate-sensitive sector policies? (iii) Where are the key intervention points available to enhance CCD activities? Findings demonstrate that Ghana’s climate-sensitive sector policies in agriculture, water, energy, forest and wildlife arenas have elements that demonstrate good alignment with adaptation, mitigation, and development priorities.

  • Usaid/Ghana Country Development and Cooperating Strategy
    USAID/GHANA COUNTRY DEVELOPMENT AND COOPERATING STRATEGY CLIMATE RISK SCREENING SUMMARY OF CLIMATE RISK SCREENING Introduction The climate risk screening process for USAID/Ghana CDCS entails two main steps: 1) how the Mission’s Development Objectives (DOs) may be at risk from climate shocks and stresses, and how to potentially reduce the impacts of those risks; and 2) identify sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Ghana, and ways USAID/Ghana’s programming can limit emissions. Given that the climate risks have been analyzed at the strategy level (i.e., the CDCS level), more detailed analyses will be required at both the project and activity levels for some programmatic areas. The purpose of the climate risk screening was to identify and prioritize climate risks that should be considered in order to promote resilience in development programming and ensure the effectiveness of USAID’s investments. This climate risk assessment is not a full climate vulnerability assessment. However, the screening process helped identify potential programmatic areas that may require further assessment when designing projects and activities and those programmatic areas that are at a low risk from climate requiring no further analysis and consideration at later stages of the program cycle. Climate Risk Screening Method For the climate risk screening process, USAID/Ghana in consultation with the Africa Bureau Climate Integration Lead (CIL) and the West African Regional Environment team worked closely to engage with all three Development Objective teams in the Mission to complete the climate risk screening tool in February-March 2020. The technical basis of the assessment was partly informed by the Ghana Climate Risk Profile developed by USAID, Ghana’s GHG Factsheet from USAID, World Resources Institute Climate Analysis Indicator Tool, Ghana's Third National Communication Report to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Ghana’s Fourth National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Report as well as other technical documents developed by academics.
