  • 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.

  • Socio-Economic Status of International Return Migrants to the Berekum Municipality of Ghana Elijah Yendaw Department of Populati
    Socio-economic status of international return migrants to the Berekum Municipality of Ghana Elijah Yendaw Department of population and Health University of Cape Coast, Ghana Introduction In the past, migration has generally been seen as reflecting the failure of development; or worse, as contributing to a vicious cycle in which poverty in the migration source country was reinforced. However, there is now a growing recognition that migration, both internal and international, can offer an important route out of poverty for many people from developing countries (Black, King & Tiemoko, 2003). Rather than a vicious cycle, migration is increasingly seen as part of a virtuous interaction in which development is enhanced, not only in the destination country but also in the sending country (Weinstein, 2001). People migrate in search of a better life, new job or education opportunities and/or as a result of political and economic changes, crises and wars. For various reasons some of them return to their country of origin, and especially the highly skilled can stimulate or support knowledge-based economic development. The return migration of highly skilled can thus contribute to reverse the negative effects of what has been discussed as brain drain, especially in developing and newly industrializing countries (Iredale & Guo, 2001, Hunger, 2004). The arguments used are, for example, the role of remittances and repatriated savings in overcoming capital constraints (Ilahi, 1999; Mesnard, 2004) and the accumulation of human capital (e.g. business skills and ideas) through exposure to the host country’s market economy environment (McCormick & Wahba, 2001; Dustmann & Kirchkamp, 2002). The role of return migration as a 1 development tool has increasingly been attracting the attention of policy- makers and others in both the migration and development domains (IOM, 2008).

  • La Nkwantanang-Madina Municipality
    LA NKWANTANANG-MADINA MUNICIPALITY 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 La Nkwantanang-Madina Municipality 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.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This is a study of the processes through which the former Togoland Trust Territory has come to constitute an integral part of modern Ghana. As the section of the country that was most recently appended, the territory has often seemed the most likely candidate for the eruption of separatist tendencies. The comparative weakness of such tendencies, in spite of economic crisis and governmental failure, deserves closer examination. This study adopts an approach which is local in focus (the area being Likpe), but one which endeavours at every stage to link the analysis to unfolding processes at the Regional and national levels.

  • Council for Scientific and Industrial Research Soil
    COUNCIL FOR SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH SOIL RESEARCH INSTITUTE REPORT ON THE SOIL RESOURCES OF TAIN DISTRICT, BRONG AHAFO REGION, GHANA (CSIR / WAAPP NO. 017) Project Team: James Kofi Senayah (Leader), K. Abrefa Nketia, Emmanuel Amoakwa, Johnny Awoonor, Anim Boafo, Kwadaso, Kumasi May, 2013 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Information Soil information is basic to several economic sectors such as farming, establishment of pastures, forestry, construction of fish pond, mining activities, etc. Soil maps provide a quick summary of soil information that assists in determining the suitability or potential of an area for any agricultural and other related land-use. They are guides to investors and planning tools for agricultural planners. The work on the Tain District in the Brong Ahafo Region, seeks to provide a more detailed soil and related information that will provide relevant information as input in the preparation of any development plan for the district and also provide quick information on potential agricultural and other landuse areas. Tain District occurs within the Tain River Basin Soil Survey Region of the CSIR-Soil Research Institute. It is a recently created district that requires knowledge on its natural resources to assist in its quest for development and a boost in economic activities. The District is basically agriculturally oriented but has little information on its soil resources due to its remoteness until the recent construction of the Bui dam. Basic soil information which provided the baseline data for this study is the draft report of the detailed reconnaissance soil survey of the Tain River Basin and a soil map (1997) available at the CSIR-Soil Research Institute.

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.
