Status of Implementation of Municipal Medium Term Development Plan (MMTDP) The Annual Progress Report gave information on the monitoring and evaluation of programmes and projects implementation outlined in the Municipal Medium Term Development Plan MMTDP (2014- 2017) for the year 2015 in the Akuapem North Municipality. Although the GSGDA had seven (7) thematic areas, the Municipality identified and implemented projects and programmes on six (6) thematic areas that pertain to it. These six were: Ensuring and Sustaining Macroeconomic Stability; Enhanced Competitiveness of Ghana’s Private Sector; Accelerated Agricultural Modernization and Sustainable Natural Resources Management; Infrastructure and Human Settlement; Human Development, Productivity and Employment; Transparent and Accountable Governance. The report showed tables of updates on programmes and projects implementation as well as updates on indicators and targets set for the year 2015. 1.2. Purpose of the M&E for the Year The main purpose for the monitoring and evaluation was to track progress and assess the impact of implemented programmes and projects on the targeted beneficiaries. The monitoring and evaluation also provided information on the extent of progress made towards the implementation of the MMTDP. It also helped to assess whether or not the developmental goal, objectives and targets have been met in the MMTDP, identify achievements, constraints and challenges for better improvement in service delivery and resource allocation, build M&E capacity, and also create database to guide monitoring and evaluation process. 1.3. Processes Involved The preparation of the report was coordinated within the framework of the MPCU. MPCU meetings were held with key stakeholders in the Municipality on the progress of work on their respective sectors. The data used for the annual progress report were the MPCU monitoring reports, reports from decentralized departments and sector departments in the Municipality. Based on the data received, a draft report was first prepared and a meeting was held for key stakeholders to review and to validate. Comments made at that meeting were incorporated into the draft report to produce the final report. 1.4. Difficulties Encountered The difficulties encountered in the year were as followed: Inadequate and untimely release of funds to undertake MPCU monitoring 1 Annual Progress Report-2015, A.N.M.A Lack of designated vehicle for the MPCU monitoring and evaluation activities. Lateness in attending MPCU meetings and work sessions. Failure on the part of some departmental heads to prepare their quarterly and annual reports Delay by some departmental heads in submitting their quarterly and annual reports. 2 Annual Progress Report-2015, A.N.M.A 2.0 M&E ACTIVITIES REPORT 2.1.

  • The Perception of Farmers in Akyem Adukrom, Eastern Region of Ghana, on Using Reclaimed Mined-Out Areas for Crop Production
    Land Restoration Training Programme Keldnaholt, 112 Reykjavik, Iceland Final project 2014 THE PERCEPTION OF FARMERS IN AKYEM ADUKROM, EASTERN REGION OF GHANA, ON USING RECLAIMED MINED-OUT AREAS FOR CROP PRODUCTION Irene Jemilatu Yaro Environmental Protection Agency P.O Box KF 725, Koforidua – Eastern Region, Ghana. [email protected] Supervisor Thorunn Petursdottir Soil Conservation Service of Iceland (SCSI) [email protected] ABSTRACT The gold mining sector in Ghana contributes substantially to the socio-economic development of the country. Unfortunately, gold mining also causes severe environmental and social problems such as ecosystem degradation that affects the livelihoods of farmers. According to Ghana’s laws, mining companies are obliged to reclaim mined-out areas and make them safe for crop production. Currently, over 1 million ha of mined land have been reclaimed and handed back to the previous land users. However, some farmers seem reluctant to cultivate these reclaimed areas. To get an insight in how successful these reclamation activities are in practice, 20 farmers that are currently farming on reclaimed mined-out areas by the gold mine company “Managing Gods’ Resources Limited” in Akyem Adukrom were interviewed about their experience and perception of cultivating the same area before mining and after reclamation and their involvement in the reclamation process. The result strongly indicated that even though in a few cases some crops seemed to be doing better on reclaimed areas than before mining, the reclaimed areas are not as fertile and productive as they were before mining. However, 16 farmers stated that reclaimed areas were as fertile as they were before mining and would recommend the cultivation of such lands to other farmers.

This faulting tectonics analysis concerns the southernmost segment of the Dahomeyide Orogen and the West-African craton eastern margin in southeast Ghana. The analysis of strike-slip faults in the frontal units of the Dahomeyide Belt indicates that four distinct compressive events (NE-SW, ENE-WSW to E-W, ESE-WNW to SE-NW and SE-NW to SSE-NNW) originated the juxtaposition of the Pan-African Mobile Zone and the West-African craton. These paleostress systems define a clockwise rotation of the compressional axis during the structuring of the Dahomeyide Orogen (650–550 Ma). The SE-NW and SSE-NNW to N-S compressional axes in the cratonic domain and its cover (Volta Basin) suggest that the reactivation of the eastern edge of the West African craton is coeval with the last stages of the Pan-African tectogenesis in southeast Ghana.

    CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background to the study. Art, especially the visual art can be said to be the only way of bringing out the philosophies and concepts of given society into physical form. Usually, it is these philosophies and concepts that become the norms and ethics which keep the society together. It can also help to educate people about the mindset of those who made it and the use it was intended for. Similarly, it can be used to teach others in the society to make art forms not just for its aesthetics but also as a way of preserving the culture of the people. Thus it could be realised that knowing the socio-cultural, educational as well as the philosophical importance of a particular work of art helps to tell others about the work, how it was made and what it is intended for. This helps in preserving the culture of a particular society for subsequent generations. It also helps the individuals in the society to have a common cultural identity. The quest by individual societies for a cultural identity is not just to prove to the world that, they are the most important but rather to have a stage of development that would make them fit into the dynamism of the ever growing world. Perhaps it is in line with the ever popular saying that “one needs to know where he is coming from to enable him know his ultimate destination”. This saying can also be linked to the Igbo proverb that “Onye na eweghi ihe arimama di ka onye nwuru anwu”, literally meaning “a person or people with no identity are as well as dead”.

  • National Communications Authority List Of
    NATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS AUTHORITY LIST OF AUTHORISED VHF-FM RADIO STATIONS IN GHANA AS AT SECOND QUARTER, 2019 Page 1 of 73 OVERVIEW OF FM RADIO BROADCASTING STATIONS IN GHANA Section 2 of the Electronic Communications Act, 2008, Act 775 mandates that the National Communications Authority “shall regulate the radio spectrum designated or allocated for use by broadcasting organisations and providers of broadcasting services”; “… determine technical and other standards and issue guidelines for the operation of broadcasting organisations …” “… may adopt policies to cater for rural communities and for this purpose may waive fees wholly or in part for the grant of a frequency authorisation”. The Broadcasting service is a communication service in which the transmissions are intended for direct reception by the general public. The sound broadcasting service involves the broadcasting of sound which may be accompanied by associated text/data. Sound broadcasting is currently deployed in Ghana using analogue transmission techniques: Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM). Over the last two decades, AM sound broadcasting has faded, leaving FM radio as the only form of sound broadcasting in Ghana. FM radio broadcasting stations are classified for the purpose of regulatory administration of the service towards the attainment of efficient use of frequency. The following is the classification of FM radio broadcasting stations in Ghana. (1) Classification by Purpose: a) Public – all stations owned and operated by the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC) and/or any other station established by the Government of Ghana by a statutory enactment. b) Public Foreign – stations established by Foreign Governments through diplomatic arrangements to rebroadcast/relay content from foreign countries e.g.
