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.

Volta Region
REGIONAL ANALYTICAL REPORT VOLTA REGION Ghana Statistical Service June, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Ghana Statistical Service Prepared by: Martin K. Yeboah Augusta Okantey Emmanuel Nii Okang Tawiah Edited by: N.N.N. Nsowah-Nuamah Chief Editor: Nii Bentsi-Enchill ii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT There cannot be any meaningful developmental activity 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, and socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. The Kilimanjaro Programme of Action on Population adopted by African countries in 1984 stressed the need for population to be considered as a key factor in the formulation of development strategies and plans. A population census is the most important source of data on the population in a country. It provides information on the size, composition, growth and distribution of the 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 resources, government services and the allocation of government funds among various regions and districts for education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users with an analytical report on the 2010 PHC at the regional level to facilitate planning and decision-making. This follows the publication of the National Analytical Report in May, 2013 which contained information on the 2010 PHC at the national level with regional comparisons. Conclusions and recommendations from these reports are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based policy formulation, planning, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programs. -

GNHR) P164603 CR No 6337-GH REF No.: GH-MOGCSP-190902-CS-QCBS
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. -

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.
