But they only stop in Anyinam for two or three years, and then go on ’to the wilderness' (marginal comment by a missionary 'he means the coast') 'to join their fellows; so they are lost to the community. Other Christians are Kwahus. There are only two Anyinam natives in the community. 2 Anyinam people are catechumen, two ex-slaves also, and some children. Of his 8 pupils in the community school, 3 had graduated to the Kibi school. Kwabeng - most of the children of the Christians are not baptised because the mothers are still heathen and will not allow it. Nevertheless there are 15-l7 scholars in Khabeng. He is well contented with the people in Asunafo. They work well together. 12-24 children in the community school. Both in Tumfa and Akropong there were exclusions for adultery.

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.

GHANA : ACHIMOTA - ANYINAM ROAD Srmdy
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT FUND GHANA : ACHIMOTA - ANYINAM ROAD SrmDY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT . GHANA: ACHIMOTA - ANYINAM ROAD STUDY--SUMMARY ! OF THE. JZNVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT . 1. INTRODUCTION I I 1.1 Sir Alexander Gibb and Partners have been commissioned by the Ghana Highway Authority to undertake a feasibility study and. thereafter the detailed engineering design n for the upgrading of the road connecting Achimota to Anyinam. The design options for the road include a dual carriageway from Achimota to Nsawam, a by-pass to Nsawam, a.by-pass to Apedwa and minor realignments to ameliorate short comings in the existing alignment. 1.2 A Repoit on the preferred alternative by-passes for Nsawam and Apedwa was submitted in October 1994. This second Report deals with the EIA of the upgrading of the road from Achimota to Anyinam including the selected route for the Apedwa. by-pass and two alternative routes for the Nsawam by-pass. 2. OBJECTIVES AND METHODOLOGY 2.1 The major objective of the Environmental Impact Assessment was to conduct .. analyses detailing the positive and negative effects of the project on the environment and recommend appropriate solutions to minimize any undesirable effects that could result .- from the project’s implementation. The EIA was also to indicate the impact the project . may have on the position of women in development in the project area. 2.2 The evaluation team, comprising an Environmentalist and a So&-economist, was .i. assisted by experts in Environmental Chemistry, Ecology, Hydrology and I’ Water-associated diseases. 4 field trips, 2 in October 1994 and 1 each in May and June 1995, were undertaken to observe conditions on the ground along the proposed routes.

Investigating Gold Mineralization Potentials in Part of the Kibi-Winneba Belt of Ghana Using Airborne Magnetic and Radiometric D
INVESTIGATING GOLD MINERALIZATION POTENTIALS IN PART OF THE KIBI-WINNEBA BELT OF GHANA USING AIRBORNE MAGNETIC AND RADIOMETRIC DATA By CHRISTOPHER AKULGA, BSc Applied Physics (Hons) A Thesis Submitted to the Department of Physics, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF PHILOSOPHY (GEOPHYSICS) College of Science Supervisor: Dr. K.

Name Signature Date ii Abstract Gold is an important resource located within the subsurface, and its mineralization is controlled by geology, structures and hydrothermal alteration within rock formations. The search for gold is therefore the search for structures within hydrothermally altered zones in the subsurface. For this reason two geophysical surveys namely airborne magnetic and radiometric, proven to be excellent in mapping structures, geology and hydrothermally altered zones were employed in the Birimian formation in the Eastern region of Ghana. The airborne magnetic and radiometric data obtained were processed into grids with Geosoft. Data enhancement filters such as reduction to the pole, vertical integral, analytical signal, first and second vertical derivatives and continuation filters were applied to the total magnetic intensity grid to enhance anomalies.

Ed Mosby our American missionary in Accra, Ghana for coordinating the information in this directory. It is suggested that all W.B.S. teachers notify their students of the information concerning the church nearest them, so they can go to the brethren for further instruc tion and baptism. It is not logical to expect the local preachers to contact the thousands of students, but the people can go to the brethren all over Ghana. The preachers in Ghana who were contacted were in accord with this plan and will give full cooperation. TIMES OF SERVICES: Most congregations in Ghana meet at 9:00 a.m.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT During the first quarter of the eighteenth century and long after, Bosome led a politically unexciting life. In contrast, the other two Akyera states, Abuakwa and Kotoku, pursued an aggressive foreign policy and tightly guarded their independence against hostile neighbours. Between 1730 and 17^2 they acquired imperial domination over the eastern half of the Gold Coast west of the Volta. In 17^> however, Kotoku succumbed to Asante authority. Abuakwa resisted Asante but yielded to that power in 1783* The fall of the Akyem empire increased the area of Asante domination. The Asante yoke proved unbearable; consequently between 1810 and 1831 the Akyem states, as members of an Afro-European alliance, fought a successful war of independence against that power.
