GHANA COVID-19 Situation Report #19 – June 2021 1 June – 30 June 2021 GHANA COVID-19 Situation Report #19 – June 2021 1 June – 30 June 2021 Situation in Numbers (as of 30 June 2021) 95,914 confirmed cases 93,444 recoveries 796 deaths 1,674 active cases Over 9.2 million children benefitting from schools re- opening US$ 17.7 million funding gap Situation Overview and Humanitarian Needs Ghana’s COVID-19 cases rose by 1,903 bringing the total of confirmed cases to 95,914 with the total death toll at 796. The increase came during the month of June as Africa saw a fast-surging third wave, with cases projected to overtake the peak of the second wave that the continent witnessed at the start of 2021. The COVID-19 upsurge comes as the vaccine supply crunch persists. On 19 June, H.E. President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, in his capacity as Chairman of the Economic Community of West African States, urged West African countries to consider the local production of COVID-19 vaccines. Ghana has administered a total of 1,232,876 doses of AstraZeneca vaccines (852,047 for the first dose and 380,829 for the second dose). As of end June, only 4.8 per cent of the targeted population in the country had been Map of Ghana with the concentration of vaccinated, and 471,218 required a second dose. confirmed cases of COVID-19. The World Bank approved Ghana’s COVID-19 Emergency Preparedness and Response Project Second Additional Financing worth US$200 million, in collaboration with the COVAX Facility COVID-19 vaccine acquisition programme. This will strengthen the resilience of Ghana’s health systems to better prepare for future pandemics and to secure the continuation of essential health and nutrition services, including routine childhood immunization. 1 UNICEF's COVID-19 response in Ghana In close cooperation with the UN Country Team, UNICEF in Ghana continues to support the Government's overall response to the COVID-19 pandemic and other critical humanitarian risks across the sectors below. The priority is to support a cross-sectoral approach to mitigate COVID-19’s impact on Ghanaians' health, nutrition, development and protection of children, adolescents, and their families. Health Interventions are ongoing to improve lifesaving health, nutrition and sanitation services for children and women, especially among vulnerable groups. UNICEF is building the capacity of health care workers and supporting the provision of essential health and nutrition services. In June, the High Commission of Canada, UNICEF and the Government of Ghana visited the Ejisu Hospital in the Ashanti region to discuss progress and gaps in relation to health, nutrition, water and sanitation. As part of a COVID-19 Response Programme supported by the Government of Canada, four additional diagnostic labs will be set up in the Ashanti Region, and 15 health facilities will be equipped with oxygen therapy service. The programme will also train 2,000 community health nurses on an integrated E-tracker system, and 2,500 health care workers on maternal, neonatal and child health, infant and young child feeding and preventative care. Additionally, this support will enable the Ghana Health Service (GHS) to set up neonatal intensive care units to provide specialized care for newborns. Canadian High Commissioner to Ghana, H.E.

Other approved vaccines requiring ultra-cold chain storage, such as the Pfizer vaccine, will also be welcome to reach the targeted population. AstraZeneca vaccines will be deployed to 14 regions, while Sputnik V vaccines will be sent to Ashanti and Greater Accra Regions. As part of the COVAX facility (CEPI, GAVI, UNICEF, WHO), UNICEF will continue to provide support in relation to the procurement and shipment of the doses, as well as the vaccination campaign. UNICEF has engaged a consultant to support the installation of remote temperature monitoring devices in 17 walk-in cold rooms at national and regional levels and trained over 20 cold chain engineers and managers to troubleshoot, operate, and maintain the devices. UNICEF is also supporting the Ghana Health Service and Ministry of health to procure 30 ultra-cold chain equipment for the National Cold Room and selected Regional Health Directorates and Hospitals, with funding support from Japan. The team on the ground is closely following up Cold chain equipment being deployed in with UNICEF’s Supply Division on the procurement and shipment. Ghana ©UNICEF/UN216739/KOKOROKO 2 A training was conducted for 16 regional teams of the GHS on Sputnik V vaccine storage, handling, administration, and waste disposal to ensure effective vaccination of enumerators and census officers of the Ghana 2021 Population and Housing Census. The objective is to protect enumerators, census officers and the public from the COVID-19 virus. Nutrition UNICEF continued to provide financial and technical support to the Ghana Health Service (GHS) and the Ghana Education Service (GES) by consolidating all food, nutrition and health actions provided through schools in the context of COVID-19. June’s results include updated national guidelines to improve the nutrition of school-age children and adolescents. In addition, UNICEF supported the orientation of 130 staff from 16 regions on the revised school-age and adolescent Adolescent students answer a teacher’s nutrition guidelines, as well as the development of regional specific question in a classroom.

As the lead for the Scaling-Up Nutrition Development Partners (SUN- DP), UNICEF continued to support the Government to strengthen nutrition coordination. Together with partners, UNICEF updated the inter-agency nutrition preparedness and response plan. Additionally, the National Development Commission, USAID, and UNICEF organized a learning event to improve multi-sectoral coordination in Ghana. The event brought over 100 participants from government ministries, departments, and agencies, development A mother practices good infant and young partners, academia, civil society organizations (CSOs), the private child feeding with age-appropriate nutritious sector, and the media. food. ©UNICEF/UN299112/ACQUAH Preliminary findings were extracted from UNICEF’s study Landscape Analysis of Nutrition Enabling Environment in Ghana and USAID’s Nutrition Mapping: Report on Multi-Sectoral Planning and Coordination for Nutrition in Ghana. The experiences of Japan also shaped the discussions in their efforts to strengthen multi-sectoral nutrition funding, coordination, leadership, and governance. The event’s outcomes will guide the Government and partners to increase direct government investments in nutrition funding and to strengthen multi-sectoral coordination in Ghana. Twenty Ghanaian children aged 10-19 years represented different parts of the country as part of a global initiative to ensure children and adolescents’ participation in improving food systems for them. A U-report poll generated 2,731 responses (girls: 834; boys: 1,010) with 44 percent confirming their desire to eat healthy food with 62 per cent saying, however, that it was unaffordable. Their views will be shared alongside those of children from 19 other countries across the world in the upcoming September UN Food Systems Summit in Rome. Over 2,700 girls and boys took part in a Ghana U-Report poll on what food means to them during a youth consultation in June. ©UNICEF/2021 3 Water Sanitation and Hygiene In the Northern Region of Ghana, UNICEF and the Community Water and Sanitation (WASH) Agency have completed the rehabilitation of a small-town water system in Kpatinga. This rehabilitation will serve an estimated 108 households and improve the water supply for 6,500 people. Infrastructure and access to clean water in ten schools and ten healthcare facilities in the Central, Northern and Volta Regions UNICEF WASH Officer Paa Kwesi Woode and a has also been improved.

Handwashing stations have also been distributed to 38 schools, reaching an estimated 7,600 children. Twenty lorry stations and 27 markets will improve handwashing stations for the public’s use. Over the reporting period, the WASH team facilitated a meeting between six rural or community banks in Accra and Kumasi, and the Association of Rural Banks’ Apex Bank to discuss the Basic Sanitation Fund, supported by the Netherlands. This meeting was a step towards enrolling additional banks onto the scheme to extend sanitation credit facilities to communities benefitting from an ongoing Urban WASH Programme supported by the Government of Denmark. A COVID-19 capacity building Programme of 59 environmental health officers on risk communication, sanitary burials and enhanced inspections have yielded positive benefits in the Eastern Region over the first half of the year. Supported by the Government of Japan, over 24,476 people were reached with messages on COVID-19 preventative care in the New Juaben North, New Juaben South, Nsawam Adoagyiri, Kwahu West and Birim North districts.

This was the time when some Akan clans came to- gether to form a kingdom with Kumase as their capital,, some few years earlier. This apparently new territory was not the original home of the Asante. Originally all the ances- tors of the Asante lived at Adansc/Amansle.' The above assertion does not agree with Eva Meyerowitz's2 view that the Akan formerly lived along the Niger bend in the regions lying roughly between Djenne and Timbucto. There Is no evidence to support such mass migrations from outside.3 Adanse is therefore an important ancestral home of many Twi speakers. The area is traditionally known in Akan cosmogony as the place where God (Odomankoma) started the creation of the world, such as the ideas of the clan <snd kinship. Furthermore, Adanse was the first of the five principal Akan states of Adanse, Akyem Abuakwa, Assen, Denkyfra and Asante (The Akanman Piesle Num) In order of seniority.5 Evidence of the above claim for Adanse is shown by the fact that most of the ruling clans of the Akan forest states trace their origins to Adanse.

Since independence, Ghana has made giant strides towards good governance and democracy. Jerry John Rawlings has ruled the country for significant period of the three decades. Rawlings emerged on the political scene in 1979 through coup d’état as a junior officer who led the Armed Forces Revolutionary Council (AFRC) and eventually consolidated his rule as a legitimate democratically elected President of Ghana under the fourth republican constitution in 1992. Therefore, Ghana’s political history cannot be complete without a thorough examination of the role of the Rawlings in the developmental/democratic process of Ghana. However, there are different contentions about the impact of Rawlings on the developmental and democratic process of Ghana. This study examines the impacts of Rawlings’ administration on the politics of Ghana using both qualitative and quantitative analytical tools.

  • Voting Pattern and Electoral Alliances in Ghana's 1996 Elections

Vol. 2 No. 2. 38-52 Voting Pattern and Electoral Alliances in Ghana's 1996 Elections Felix K. G.Anebo* Abstract In the 1996 presidential and parliamentary elections, Ghana's two major opposi- tion political parties - the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and People's Convention Party (PCP) - which are traditionally very bitter opponents, formed an electoral alliance to defeat Rowlings and his National Democratic Congress. This paper analyses the factors that influenced the electoral alliance of the two traditional antagonists, and explains the reasons for their failure, in spite of their alliance, to win the elections. It argues, among other things, that changes in existing political alignments as well as voting patterns accounts for the electoral victory of Rowlings and his NDC in the elections. Introduction Common opposition to the Rawlings regime has made possible electoral co- operation between the country' s two major political antagonists, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and People's Convention Party (PCP). In whatever way it is viewed, the electoral alliance between the NPP and PCP into what they refer to as "The Great Alliance" is politically very significant. The two parties come from two divergent political traditions and were historically bitter enemies. The PCP traces its ancestry to Kwame Nkrumah's Convention People's Party (CPP) which in its hey days was associated with radical nationalism, Pan-Africanism and socialism.

  • District Analytical Report, Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly
    KUMASI METROPOLITAN Copyright (c) 2014 Ghana Statistical Service ii 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 Kumasi Metropolitan 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.

  • Stamping History: Stories of Social Change in Ghana's Adinkra Cloth
    Stamping History: Stories of Social Change in Ghana’s Adinkra Cloth by Allison Joan Martino A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in The University of Michigan 2018 Doctoral Committee: Professor Raymond A. Silverman, Chair Professor Kelly M. Askew Assistant Professor Nachiket Chanchani Professor Emeritus Elisha P. Renne Allison Joan Martino [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0002-1252-1378 © Allison Joan Martino 2018 DEDICATION To my parents. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In the summer of 2013, I was studying photography and contemporary art in Accra, Ghana’s capital. A conversation during that trip with Professor Kwesi Yankah changed the course of my research. He suggested a potential research project on adinkra. With adinkra everywhere in Ghana today, research possibilities seemed endless. Adinkra appealed to me from my interest in studying Akan visual and verbal arts, a research area nurtured during an ethnopoetics course that Professor Yankah taught as a visiting scholar at Michigan in 2011. That conversation led to this project. Soon after that meeting with Professor Yankah, I took an exploratory research trip to Kumasi. Professor Gilbert Amegatcher, who has a wealth of knowledge about Akan arts and culture, traveled with me.
