Counter-Hegemonic Struggles for Seed Sovereignty in Ghana
Every farmer is a farmer? A critical analysis of the emergence and development of Peasant Farmers Association of Ghana
Smallholder farmer-based rural social movements have been heralded as a promising source of political power with the potential to effectively promote sustainable trajectories of agricultural development in Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond. However, the very early stages of rural social movement building remain understudied, including under what conditions such nascent efforts are likely to lead to effective political influence and foundations for br…
Impact of anthropogenic disturbance on tree species diversity, vegetation structure and carbon storage potential in an upland evergreen forest of Ghana, West Africa
The impact of anthropogenic disturbance on tree species diversity, vegetation structure and carbon storage potential was assessed in an upland evergreen forest on a disturbance gradient (highly stressed, moderately stressed and non-stressed vegetation) in the Atewa Range Forest Reserve. Five spatially separated plots with sizes 50 × 50 m were demarcated in each gradient and sampled for vegetation and soil attributes. Specifically, we sampled tree…

Effects of anthropogenic activities on land-use dynamics in an upland tropical evergreen forest in Ghana
The Atewa Range Forest Reserve (ARFR) in Ghanais threatened by anthropogenic activities. This study used geospatial techniques to assess the effects of human activities on land use and land cover (LULC) dynamics in ARFR using Landsat satellite images of 1986, 1991, 2006 and 2016. Estimated Normalized Differential Vegetation Index showed a continuous decline in LULC, signifying increasing stress on vegetation in ARFR. Between 1986 and 2016, the ra…
Prevalence and changes in boredom, anxiety and well-being among Ghanaians during the Covid-19 pandemic
This study is the first in Ghana to provide evidence of the changes in boredom, anxiety and psychological well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings underscore the need for the inclusion of mental health interventions as part of the current pandemic control protocol and public health preparedness towards infectious disease outbreaks
Drivers of single-use plastic waste generation
Predictive Probabilities of Access to Clean Cooking
Access to clean cooking fuels is critical for human health and features, prominently in the UN Sustainable Development Goals. However, our understanding of the probabilities of access to clean cooking across sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is emergent. A pooled regression analysis of the compositional and contextual factors that cumulatively influence access to clean cooking fuels in 31 SSA countries, between 2010 and 2016, was carried out. Household ac…
