The youth are not given a listening ear’

Reconceptualizing the youth and waithood notions
Dimensions of women’s mobility, livelihoods and vulnerability in artisanal and small-scale mining-induced local economy
Dominant artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) narratives highlight the invisibility of women’s livelihoods and gendered struggles in the sector. Indeed, livelihood practices in ASM, how daily mobilities facilitate these practices and the specific vulnerabilities women face are still understudied and undertheorised. Drawing on qualitative research in Prestea-Bondaye mining area (PBMA), Ghana, we explore the livelihood dimensions, forms of mobili…
Citizenship, Belonging and Crisis-Induced Returns of Ghanaian Migrants from Cote d’Ivoire
The socio-economic embeddedness of ECOWAS foreign nationals and migrants in Côte d’Ivoire has been amply described. Despite previous episodes of political violence and the somewhat recent anti-immigrant policies, Côte d’Ivoire has served and will continue to serve as a haven for foreign-born populations of ECOWAS nationals and Ivorian-born descendants of foreigners. This paper draws on the notion of citizenship and belonging, and qualitative data…

Reduction in lending and rescheduling of…
Future aspirations of rural-urban young migrants in Accra, Ghana
The futures that young people imagine for themselves should serve as a guidepost to youth employment programmes. Drawing on data from interviews conducted with 30 young migrants in Accra, this article examines the futures young migrants imagine for themselves and the ways they are working to realise their aspirations. Findings suggest that while the young migrants were engaged in some economic activities in the urban informal economy, they regard…
Private sector participation in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Ghana
Post-colonial dilemmas in the construction of Ghanaian citizenship education
Living conditions and social determinants of healthcare inequities affecting female migrants in Ghana
Navigating Precarious Employment
This article is concerned with the precarious employment situations of migrant youth and the supportive role of social networks. It draws on interviews conducted with 30 young migrants in Accra, Ghana. The empirical findings reveal that the precarious nature of young people’s employment manifests in the uncertain nature of work, exploitation by clients and employers, as well as low and irregular income. These lead to socioeconomic hardships such …
