Towards Integrated Urban Water Management in the Greater Accra
Towards integrated urban water management in the Great the in management water urban integrated Towards Towards integrated urban water management in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area Greater Accra Metropolitan Area Current status and strategic directions for the future Accra, the administrative and economic capital of Ghana, just like cities all over the world, is facing ever increasing difficulties in efficiently managing water resources and providing water and sanitation services to its citizens. Meeting these challenges and adopting a more integrated approach to urban water management requires a firm understanding of the current situation. This book presents a situational analysis of Accra, bringing together a wealth of information and data from different sources, including stakeholder dialogues, in the areas of water service provision, excreta and waste water management, storm water management and planning and coordinating. It is presented and analysed through the Resources, Infrastructure, Demand and Access Framework (RIDA) which provides a thorough overview of the current situation and challenges that the city is facing. This book is the consolidation of a four-year strategic planning process, undertaken by the Accra Learning Alliance, which brings together policy makers, service providers, researchers and civil society. In addition to analysis, it presents a vision for water management in the city of Accra and strategic directions towards achieving the vision as defined by the Accra Learning Alliance. The SWITCH project facilitated this process, aiming to bring about a paradigm shift in urban water management away from existing ad hoc solutions to urban water management and towards a more coherent and integrated approach.

ICI was set up as a multi-stakeholder initiative (MSI), harnessing the energies and expertise of the chocolate and cocoa industry, of civil society, and of governments in cocoa-producing nations, to bring about positive change in agricultural labour practices and in the elimination of child labour. Supported by individual chocolate and cocoa companies, ICI is led by a Board composed equally of industry and civil society (NGO) representatives.

Prestea/Huni Valley District
PRESTEA/HUNI VALLEY DISTRICT Copyright © 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 Prestea/Huni Valley 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. -

Pelita Perkebunan 34 (2) 2018, 128—136 Obodoi et al. ISSN: 0215-0212 / e-ISSN: 2406-9574 Cocoa Purchasing and the Issue of Insecurity in the Akontombra District in the Western Region of Ghana Jacob Obodai1*), Paul Kitson Baffour Asamoah2) and Joseph Edusei2) 1)Department of Planning and Development Studies, Christian Service University College 2)Centre for Settlements Studies, College of Art and Built Environment, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi-Ghana *)Corresponding Author: [email protected] Received: 12 February 2018 / Accepted: 2 April 2018 Abstract The cocoa industry in Ghana is plagued with a number of challenges. Among such challenges is the issue of insecurity. This notwithstanding, there are limited scholarly findings on the nature and the underlying factors associated with these insecurity issues. This paper examined the cocoa industry in the Sefwi Akontombra District in the Western Region of Ghana and presents an analysis of the processes and procedures for cocoa purchasing in the district; the security arrangements and mechanisms put in place during cocoa purchasing peak periods; the nature of access roads in cocoa growing areas in the district; and the influence of access roads on the insecurity of cocoa purchasing in the district. The study adopted a qualitative research approach and using a cross sectional study design, the case of OLAM Ghana Limited, a private licensed cocoa buying company operating in Sefwi Akontombra was examined. Primary data were gathered from purchasing clerks, drivers, warehouse keepers and officials of the company. Data from the District Command of the Ghana Police Service and the Department of Feeder Roads district office were solicited using interview guides. -

DREF operation n°. MDRGH001 Glide no. FL-2009-000132-GHA Ghana: Floods 16 July, 2009 The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross and Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of National Societies to respond to disasters. CHF 101,314 (USD 93,290 or EUR 66,887) has been allocated from the Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) to support the Ghana Red Cross Society in delivering immediate assistance to 1,000 vulnerable targeted households. Unearmarked funds to repay DREF are encouraged. Summary: Several hours of rain in the night of Friday 19 June, 2009 and subsequent heavy down pours along the coastal and forest belt of Ghana from 6 to 9 July, 2009 caused massive Flooded areas in Ghana/Red Cross of Ghana destruction of private and public properties in most communities in the western parts of Accra, Eastern, Volta, Central, Western and Ashanti Regions. Heavy rains are falling down all over the country. The floods were caused by choked and narrow gutters and the erection of structures and buildings on watercourses. The disaster coordination body in Ghana (NADMO) indicated that 19,755 people are affected. This operation is expected to be implemented over four months, and will therefore be completed by November 2009; a Final Report will be made available three months after the end of the operation (by February, 2010). -
