    REGIONAL ANALYTICAL REPORT UPPER EAST REGION Ghana Statistical Service June, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Ghana Statistical Service Prepared by: ZMK Batse Festus Manu John K. Anarfi Edited by: Samuel K. Gaisie Chief Editor: Tom K.B. Kumekpor 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.

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.

  • Multiplicity of Voices in Community Development Through Radio in Fanteakwa District, Ghana
    Multiplicity of Voices in Community Development through Radio in Fanteakwa District, Ghana Manfred K. Asuman Geopat Consultancy Ghana Africanus L. Diedong (Corresponding Author) Department of African and General Studies, University for Development Studies, Wa Campus, Ghana [email protected] DOI//http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/gjds.v16i2.9 ABSTRACT The study examines community radio as a channel for development through people’s participation in development activities in the Fanteakwa District of Ghana. The study argues that participation of people is necessary for development. The study employed the concept of participatory development communication and the empowerment theory to help understand the role of community radio in development. Mixed method research design was used for the study. Data was collected through survey questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Purposive sampling and multi-stage sampling techniques were used to select respondents. It was found that participation is highest amongst people whose preferred channel of contribution to development initiatives is Radio Listenership Clubs. Though community radio station is serving the community, more needs to be done to properly integrate it into the lives of the people. Another finding was that community radio is not necessarily owned by the community, but can be the result of an individual’s entrepreneurial effort.I t is concluded that the integration of participatory approaches in radio programming and ownership is relevant because they are more people-centred and can be sustainable. A legislation on community broadcasting is recommended in order to define the role of individual entrepreneurs andNGO ’s in establishing community radio stations.

  • Vowel Height Agreement in Ewe
    Journal of Applied Linguistics and Language Research Volume 4, Issue 7, 2017, pp. 206-216 Available online at www.jallr.com ISSN: 2376-760X Vowel Height Agreement in Ewe Pascal Kpodo * University of Education, Winneba, Ghana Abstract This paper seeks to give a descriptive account of a vowel height feature agreement process in Ewe. The paper establishes that the height agreement process is neither height harmony nor metaphony. The paper further demonstrates the systematic difference between the coastal dialects and the inland dialects of Ewe in relation to the vowel height agreement process. The height agreement occurs in the cliticization of diminutive marker to nouns and adjectives as well as the cliticization of the 3rd person singular object pronominal to verbs. While the agreement process is host controlled in the inland (Ʋedome) dialects of Ewe, it is enclitic controlled in the coastal (Aŋlɔ) dialects of Ewe. A synchronic analysis indicates that while [i] is the underlying form of the enclitic for the 3rd person singular object pronominal as well as the diminutive marker in the coastal dialects of Ewe, [e] is the underlying representation of the 3rd person singular object pronominal as well as the diminutive marker in the inland dialects of Ewe. Keywords: clitic, enclitic, metaphony, feature agreement BACKGROUND The Ewe Language is a member of the Kwa sub-group of the Volta-Comoe branch of the Niger-Congo language family. Ewe is a member of the Gbe language cluster spoken within an area stretching from the southwestern corner of Nigeria, across southern Benin and Togo into the Volta Region of Ghana (Capo, 1985; Stewart, 1989, as cited in Kluge, 2000).

    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.
