Candidate’s Signature:……………………… Date:………..………….. Name: Edward John Enim Supervisors’ Declaration We hereby declare that the preparation and the presentation of the thesis were supervised in accordance with the guidelines on supervision of thesis laid down by the University of Cape Coast. Principal Supervisor’s Signature:………………….. Date:…………...… Name: Prof. S. B. Kendie Co-Supervisor’s Signature:……………………… Date:………………… Name: Dr. E. K. Ekumah ii Digitized by UCC ,Library ABSTRACT The goal of all development is to help people attain high quality of life. People living in rural areas need more attention in the realisation of this goal because they are more disadvantaged. The socio-economic development approach, which is the major approach to development and driven by modernisation, overlooks other important factors of quality of life. From the literature, integrative quality of life (IQOL) theory addresses these challenges when adopted in project planning. The purpose of the study was to reflect on the outcomes of Ghana Baptist Convention’s (GBC) rural projects applying the IQOL theory.

  • Asutifi South District
    ASUTIFI SOUTH 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 Asutifi South 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.

With a regional secretariate in Nairobi, the network operates through national chapters in 23 countries, with an expansion plan to cover the entire sub-Saharan Africa. One of the objectives of the network is to disseminate research results to policy makers, legislators, the organized private sector, civil society, mass media and farmers’ groups through publications, dialogue and advocacy. Among its range of publications are the Working Paper Series (WPS), Research Paper Series (RPS), Special Paper Series (SPS) and the Technopolicy Briefs. Papers published under the Working Paper Series (WPS) are those produced from the ATPS small grants process or from regional projects. The WPS are not subjected to the strict requirements of the RPS but this does not suggest that they do not have significant policy or methodological contribution to make to the work of ATPS. The Board supports all efforts aimed at improving the WPS, such as building skills that will make most of the ATPS research outputs to be published under the RPS.

    Family Size and Quality of Life Nexus; Case of The Sunyani Municipality, Ghana FAMILY SIZE AND QUALITY OF LIFE NEXUS- CASE OF THE SUNYANI MUNICIPALITY, GHANA Jones Lewis Arthur * Lecturer, Department of Commercial Studies, Sunyani Polytechnic, Ghana, Research Assistant, RASCON Consultancy, Ghana. Jones obtained his B.Ed (Hons) Social Studies from the University of Cape Coast, Ghana and his M.A. Envi. Mgt. & Policy from the same University, Ghana. Contact: P. O. Box 206, Sunyani Polytechnic, Sunyani , Ghana. Email: [email protected] Jones Lewis Arthur, Sunyani Polytechnic, P. O. Box 206, Sunyani, Ghana 1 Family Size and Quality of Life Nexus; Case of The Sunyani Municipality, Ghana ABSTRACT The 1996 population policy of Ghana underlies the various drives to increasing population as well as modes for ensuring a manageable population size. The rational of the policy was to motivate and empower ministries, departments and assemblies to actively pursue policies towards acceptable family sizes thereby providing a platform for investigation into the family sizes. Various estimates of Ghana’s fertility rate indicate that it has been fairly high over a long period. The reported total fertility rate (TFR) ranged between 6 and 7 for the period of between 1980 and 1988. The 1993 Ghana Demographic Health Survey report (GDHS) showed that there has been a slight reduction in TFR from 6.4 to 5.5 as compared to the TFR of most developed countries that stood at 2. This invariably shows a higher figure for Ghana and in 2003 the TFR was still high at 4.4. The research examines the major drives to choice of family sizes as well as the socio-economic implications of opting for an invariably high or low family size.

The study investigates the real and latent social impacts of mining activities on the communities in the light of the numerous promises and prospects that mining is said to provide for communities. The study employed qualitative methods of data collection of interviews, observation and focus group discussions. The study finds that from the prospecting stages through the construction of mining infrastructure and the actual mining itself, there are diverse social impacts on communities that can be very devastating on the communities where the mining takes place. These social impacts can to a larger extent, change the dynamics of community living and can make the lives of its residents better or worse. It is these impacts, real or imagined that this study unravels even though the social indicators assessed in this study are by no means exhaustive.

  • Asutifi North District Assembly
    REPUBLIC OF GHANA THE COMPOSITE BUDGET OF THE ASUTIFI NORTH DISTRICT ASSEMBLY FOR THE 2016 FISCAL YEAR ASUTIFI NORTH DISTRICT ASSEMBLY NARRATIVE STATEMENT- 2016 COMPOSITE BUDGET 1.0 INTRODUCTION Section 92 of the Local Government Act, 1993, Act 462 envisages the implementation of the Composite Budget System under which the budget of department of the District Assembly would be integrated into the budget of the District Assembly. The District Composite Budgeting System would achieve the following amongst others: a. Ensure the public funds follow functions to give meaning to the transfer of staff transferred from the Civil Service to the Local Government Service. b. Establish an effective integrated budgeting system which supports intended goals, expectation and performance of government at the local levels, and c. Facilitate harmonized development and introduce fiscal prudence in the management of public funds at the MMDA level. Since 2011, Government has been directing all Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies (MMDAs) to prepare for each fiscal year, Composite Budget which integrates departments under Schedule 1 of the Local Government (Department of the District Assemblies) (Commencement) Instrument, 2009, (LI 1961). This policy initiative is to upscale full implementation of fiscal decentralization and ensures that the utilization of all public resources at the level takes place in an efficient, effective, transparent and accountable manner for improved service delivery. The Composite Budget of the Asutifi North District Assembly for the 2016 fiscal year has been prepared from the 2016 Annual Action Plan lifted from the 2016-2018 Medium Term Development Plan which is aligned to the Ghana Shared Growth and Development Agenda (GSGDA II, 2014-2017).
