Tema Metropolitan
TEMA METROPOLITAN i 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 Tema 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. -

Association Between Geography and Diseases in Ghana
ORIGINAL RESEARCH Place, People and Diseases: Association Between Geography and Diseases in Ghana Michael Kwame Dzordzormenyoh, Ph.D.1, Divine Mawuli Asafo 2, Theresa Domeh3 1 Postdoctoral Fellow, Center for Black Studies Research University of California, Santa Barbara 2 Ph.D. Candidate, Department of Urban Studies & Planning University of Sheffield, UK 3 Undergraduate Student, Department of Geography & Regional Planning University of Cape Coast, Ghana ABSTRACT There is a growing field of literature addressing the relationship between geography and health. A person’s physical environment has the potential to present various risks or protective factors that may influence health. Exploring this relationship within Ghana’s Ledzokuku-Krowor municipality broadens the field of literature on this topic as it relates to West African communities. Identifying frequently reported diseases from health care professionals and residents provides a look into the major health outcomes in the region. This manuscript is exploratory and could lay the groundwork for future researchers to further investigate potential risk factors that contribute to high rates of disease (e.g., malaria, hypertension, rheumatism). KEY WORDS Geography, Disease, Healthcare & Ghana INTRODUCTION Africa provides an unbounded scope for the practice of geography (place of residence and work), disease and health. The nature and purpose of the nexus between geography and disease varies in definition (McGlashan, 1972; Hunter, 1974; Pyle, 1976; Abalo et. al., 2018; Tutu & Busingye, 2020). Africa provides infinite examples of the nexus between geography and disease. In the continent, man and environment are closely linked in a complex relationship which frequently presents conditions of disequilibrium whereby diseases flourish and health is impaired (Tilley, 2004; Emmanuel et. -

Certain consequences of the development of this co- hort in the cities, such as acts of delinquency and riots in the towns, lack of sufficient manpower in the rural areas and strain on services within the cities, were perceived as a growing problem by the governments. There is a direct correlation between the governments' perception of the con- sequences of this youth cohort development and the enactment of programs for youth in national development. -
