A Study of the Arts in the Ada Asafotufiami Festival A STUDY OF THE ARTS IN THE ADA ASAFOTUFIAMI FESTIVAL BY KABUTEY, ERNEST ABRAHAM (B.A. HONS. INTEGRATED RURAL ART AND INDUSTRY) KWAME NKRUMAH UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY, KUMASI, GHANA MAY, 2011 A STUDY OF THE ARTS IN THE ADA ASAFOTUFIAMI FESTIVAL By Kabutey, Ernest Abraham (B.A. Hons. Integrated Rural Art and Industry) A Thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN ART EDUCATION Faculty of Art, College of Art and Social Sciences MAY, 2011 © 2011 Department of General Art Studies ABSTRACT The arts in the Ada Asafotufiami festival serve as strong visual and performing communicative devices of culture among the Ada people. The principal motivation of this research stems from the fact that the arts and their roles in the Ada Asafotufiami festival are almost completely overlooked when it comes to the analysis and appreciation of the festival. The Asafotufiami festival is annually celebrated in pomp and pageantry as it embodies various forms of art; it has shown a remarkable capacity for survival in spite of several socio- cultural influences. During its celebration the arts of the people are displayed. However, most of the youth and people who participate, observe and read about the festival may not know the ideologies or beliefs of the various rites and significance of the arts. Other cultural values involved in the celebration of the festival may also not be appreciated. This study seeks to contribute to the total development of Art education by providing adequate information on the arts characterizing the festival and the roles that they play. The descriptive method of research was employed for this study. The scope of the study covered the traditional area of the Dangme East District (Ada) in the Greater Accra region. Data was collected through observation, questionnaire responses and interviews. Population of the study was limited to 105 persons, mostly traditional leaders, opinion leaders, participants and educational facilitators. The stratified sampling method was adopted with the assumption that the findings would be representative of the Ada state. The major findings gathered from the study show that, art and culture are interdependent, thus, the success of the Ada Asafotufiami festival is made possible by the numerous roles art play. The arts portray beliefs, traditions and aspirations of the people. It is recommended that, there should be scholarly documentation of the festival by researchers and duly published to help promote the cultural heritage of the people. iii DECLARATION I hereby declare that this Thesis is my own work towards the M.A. and that, to the best of my knowledge it contains no material previously published by another person nor material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree of the University, except where due acknowledgment has been made in the text.

Countries: Côte d’Ivoire and Ghana. Thematic Focal Area: Disaster risk reduction and early warning systems Type of Implementing Entity: MIE Implementing Entity United Nations Human Settlements Programme Executing Entities: Ghana: LUSPA; NGO Côte d’Ivoire: Ministry of the Environment and Sustainable Development, Ministry of Planning and Development; NGOs Amount of Financing Requested: US$ 13,951,160 Deleted: 59 PROJECT BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT I. Problem statement Coastal cities and communities in West Africa are facing the combined challenges of rapid urbanisation and climate change, especially sea level rise and related increased risks of erosion, inundation and floods. For cities and communities in West Africa not to be flooded or submerged, and critically exposed to rising seas and storm surges in the next decade(s), they urgently need to increase the protection of their coastline and infrastructure, adapt to create alternative livelihoods in the inland and promote a climate change resilient urban development path. This can be done by using a combination of climate change sensitive spatial planning strategies and innovative and ecosystem-based solutions to protect land, people and assets, by implementing nature-based solutions and ‘living shorelines,’ which redirect the forces of nature rather than oppose them. he Governments of Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire have requested UN-Habitat to support coastal (and riverine / delta) cities Deleted: T and communities to better adapt to climate change. This project proposal aims at responding to this request by addressing the main challenges in these coastal zones: coastal erosion, coastal inundation / flooding and livelihoods’ resilience.

  • Some Endangered Languages of Ghana
    American Journal of Linguistics 2012, 1(2): 10-18 DOI: 10.5923/j.linguistics.20120102.01 Some Endangered Languages of Ghana Jonas N. Akpanglo-Narte y1,*, Rebecca A. Akpanglo-Narte y2 1Office of the Vice-President (Academic), Regent University College of Science & Technology, Accra, Ghana 2Department of Applied Linguistics, University of Education, Winneba, Ghana Abstract The phenomenon of language endangerment and, ultimately, language loss is considered in regard to indigenous Ghanaian languages. It is established that two languages, namely, Ghanaian English (GhE) and Akan, especially the Twi dialect, and to a small degree, Ewe, are slowly killing off the smaller Ghanaian languages. For instance, in 1970 almost all Winneba natives spoke Efutu (Ewutu) as their first language. By 2010, 40 years later, only approximately 50% of children born to the Winneba natives speak Efutu as a first language. About 30% of these children speak no Efutu at all. Interestingly, medium-sized languages such as Ga, Dangme and Nzema are also slowly losing grounds to the three languages cited. Meanwhile there are some dozen Ghanaian languages that have less than 1000 estimated speakers each but which have held their own for a century. It is concluded that the closer a language community is to the major urban centers, the more likely it is to be endangered. It is further concluded that the language policy of the Ghana Government is contributing to the loss of Ghanaian languages. Ke ywo rds Endangered, Languages, Language Loss, Ghana, Ghanaian, Ga, Dangme, GaDangme the world’s top 10, namely, Standard Chinese, English, 1. Introduction Spanish, Bengali, Hindi, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, and German.

  • The Hydrobiology of Keta and Songor Lagoons
    4 Ecological character of Keta and Songor lagoons 4.1 Meteorology and hydrology 4.1.1 Climatic conditions The climate of the study area lies within the dry Equatorial climatic region of Ghana, which also covers the entire coastal belt of the country. This region is the driest in the country and is referred to as the central and southeastern coastal plains. The coastal lands of Ghana have two clearly defined seasons, the Dry season and the Rainy season. The Rainy season exhibits double maxima, the main one occurring between April and June and the minor one between September and October. June is normally the wettest month in the area. The annual isohyetal pattern of the coastal belt has the minimum in the west outside Accra up and close to Songor lagoon in the east. The prevailing wind direction is from the southwest (the southwest monsoons). This is a characteristic feature for the entire coastal belt of the country. Mean monthly averages of daily wind speed range between 21.1 to 29.0 km h-1. However, high velocity winds (110 km h-1) of short duration have been recorded in Accra. The north east trade winds rarely reach the coast. Day light and sunshine (hrs) in project area The day length varies between 11.8 h and 12.5 h in the study area. It reaches its maximum in June and minimum in January. Daily sunshine duration is least in June (4.8 h) when there is maximum cloud cover and maximum in November (8.4 h) with a mean of 6.9 h.
