Emmanuel Otutei Organisation for Livelihood Enhancement Services, P.O. Box NB41, New Abirem, E/R, Ghana * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The Assin North Municipality is endowed with forest resources that are used for economic purposes. This study focused on the interests of the actors involved in the management of off-reserve forests in the municipality and how their interactions influence forest management outcomes. The study collected primary data through interviews, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), observations and photography using 8 weeks in the field between May to July 2012. The study conducted 35 structured interviews using questionnaires; 14 unstructured interviews; two (2) semi-structured interviews; and five (5) FDGs to gather data on forest actors, interests and practices from the study area. Participants in the study included farmers, staff of the Forest Service Division of the Forestry Commission, Bush managers of logging companies, staff of the Municipal Assembly and chiefs. Through the lens of political ecology, the study revealed that actors in the municipality are enmeshed in a competitive battle for the economic benefits accruing from the commercial exploitation of forest resources (timber). Again, actors do not have equal powers in such a competitive battle.

  • Political Party Organisation and Women's Empowerment
    Final report Political party organisation and women’s empowerment A field experiment in Ghana Nahomi Ichino Noah L. Nathan December 2017 When citing this paper, please use the title and the following reference number: S-33403-GHA-1 Political Party Organization and Women's Empowerment: A Field Experiment in Ghana∗ Nahomi Ichinoyand Noah L. Nathanz December 31, 2017 Gender gaps in participation and representation are common in new democracies, both at the elite level and at the grassroots. We investigate efforts to close the grassroots gender gap in rural Ghana, a patronage-based democracy in which a dense network of political party branches provides the main avenue for local participation. We report results from a randomized field experiment to address norms against women's participation and encourage women's participa- tion ahead of Ghana's December 2016 elections. The treatment is a large community meeting presided over by the traditional chief, known locally as a durbar. We find null results. The treat- ment was hampered in part by its incomplete implementation, including by local political party leaders who may have feared an electorally-risky association with a controversial social message. The study emphasizes the importance of social norms in explaining gender gaps in grassroots politics in new democracies and contributes new evidence on the limitations of common civic education interventions used in the developing world. ∗Special tanks to Johnson Opoku, Samuel Asare Akuamoah, and the staff of the National Commission of Civic Education (NCCE) for their partnership, as well as to Santiago S´anchez Guiu, Helen Habib and IPA-Ghana.

  • The Composite Budget of the Akwapim South District Assembly for the 2016
    REPUBLIC OF GHANA THE COMPOSITE BUDGET OF THE AKWAPIM SOUTH DISTRICT ASSEMBLY FOR THE 2016 FISCAL YEAR 1 1.0 Background The Akwapim South District was carved out of the then Akwapim South Municipality, now Nsawam Adoagiri Municipality in June, 2012 by a Legislative Instrument 2040. It has Aburi as its administrative District Capital which is the second highest habitable town in Ghana. The District is the first district along the Akuapem Ridge of the Eastern part of Ghana 1.1 Population Size and Distribution The 2010 Population and Housing Census put the total population of the district at 37,501 which accounts for about 1.4 percent of the population in the Eastern region. Out of this figure, 48.5 percent are males with 51.5 percent being females. The district has a population growth rate of 3.8 and death rate of 9.5 per 1000 people per annum According to the 2010 Population and Housing Census, the District has about three-quarters (73.4%) of its population residing at rural areas as against 26.6% in the urban set up. This implies, the district is rural in nature and therefore faces myriad of challenges of inadequate social infrastructure and amenities as any rural area in Ghana. 1.2 District Economy 1.2.1 Agriculture The main economic activity in the District is Agriculture. The Climate conditions favour production of variety of crops such as Maize, Cassava, Yam and Vegetables including Tomato, Pepper, Garden Eggs, Okro and Cabbage. Tree crops such as Cocoa, Citrus and Oil Palm are also grown in the District.
