Cultural History of the Lake Bosomtwe Communities
History of the Lake Bosomtwe Communities Introduction Biodiversity is a crucial part of our daily lives and livelihoods because it provides the resources both present and future generations depend on to satisfy our needs. Many of the activities such as bush burning, shifting cultivation, sand winning, harvesting of fingerlings, use of unapproved fishing nets, and deforestation undertaken by communities living around Lake Bosomtwe have a detrimental impact on the biodiversity of the lake and the surrounding ecosystem, yet to date little has been done to check these damaging activities. They continue as a result of the communities’ lack of awareness about their detrimental impacts. However, the bold step taken by Friends of the Earth-Ghana (FoE-Ghana) to educate the communities around the Lake about the negative environmental impacts of their activities is very positive. The livelihoods of all these villages depend on the lake, and if something is not done about the damaging activities, the future for both humans and wildlife will be bleak. It is an onerous task, but with the support of communities, chiefs and stakeholders, FoE-Ghana will have positive impacts that will enhance the development of the people within both local communities and the nation at large. The destruction of biodiversity in and around the lake has had many negative impacts on local communities as well as on the environment. Hunters and poachers set fire to the bush in search of bush meat as a source of protein and an income. This has drastically reduced the populations of species like antelope, grass cutters, zebra and other species. -

Ed Mosby our American missionary in Accra, Ghana for coordinating the information in this directory. 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. The preachers in Ghana who were contacted were in accord with this plan and will give full cooperation. TIMES OF SERVICES: Most congregations in Ghana meet at 9:00 a.m. -
Bosomtwe District
BOSOMTWE DISTRICT 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 Bosomtwe 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. -
