Use Planting for Food and Jobs to Address North-South Seasonal Labour Migration – Prof. Tanle

24 Jul, 2023 By DIS

Government's flagship programme of Planting for Food and Jobs could partly address north-south seasonal labour migration in Ghana. This is according to a Professor of Migration and Refugees Studies, Prof Augustine Tanle.

 

According to him, this is achievable “if the necessary infrastructure (irrigation facilities), inputs (fertilizer and relevant chemicals) and technical support are provided devoid of partisanship and political rhetoric”.

 

He underscored the need for government to facilitate the creation of growth poles in areas such as Wa, Bolgatanga,Tamale, Damongo and Nalerigu, indicating that : " these can serve as development points so that the peripheral areas can be attractive for further development."

 

Prof. Tanle made the remark at his inaugural lecture which was on the topic: “Interrogating North-South Seasonal Labour Migration in Ghana as a Livelihood Strategy”.

 

Prof. Tanle being robed by the members of the College of Professors-UCC

He admitted that the main drivers of north-south seasonal labour migration from northern Ghana were widespread poverty, poor physical characteristics and differences in socio-economic opportunities and infrastructural development  between the northern and southern Ghana.

Prof. Tanle, who is also the Vice-Dean of the Faculty of Social Science, University of Cape Coast,  appealed to government to make conscious efforts to expand socio-economic opportunities and infrastructural development in northern Ghana.

He expressed the hope that such opportunities and facilities could create the enabling environment for investment, motivate individual or group enterprises in both agriculture and non-agriculture enterprises. 

That, he said, could create job opportunities for people who, otherwise, would have migrated to southern Ghana where opportunities for their services had now dwindled.

Prof. Tanle receiving a citation from the Faculty of Social Sciences – UCC

He expressed the belief that Ghana was not likely to achieve the Sustainanable Development Goals 1,2,4,6 and 10, which deal with poverty, hunger, quality education, clean water and sanitation, and reduced inequalities, respectively, owing to the widespread spatial inequalities in socio-economic development between northern and southern Ghana. 

Prof. Tanle, therefore, passionately appealed to government to channel its development policies to the northern part of the country to bridge the yawning gap between the north and south.

StuFSO holds Awardees' Symposium

19 Jul, 2023 By DIS

The Students' Financial Support Office (StuFSO) of University of Cape Coast (UCC), has organised an awardees' symposium for brilliant but needy students who are on the University’s Scholarship.

The event was aimed at building the capacity of the students to gain applicable knowledge and the soft skills necessary to develop the right mindset for excelling in the world of work.

The Dean of Students’ Affairs-UCC, Prof. Eugene Marfo Darteh, speaking on the topic, "Achieving Academic Success on a low budget," advised students to commit themselves to their studies in order to achieve academic excellence.

 Prof. Eugene Marfo Darteh - Dean of Students’ Affairs

To achieve that, he told the students to surround themselves with levelheaded friends who were equally studious.

He stressed the need for the awardees to be disciplined in whatever they did since that was the cardinal tool for realizing their goals in life.

Prof. Darteh, whilst entreating them to prudently manage their time in school in order to achieve their goals in life, also encouraged the students to be clear on their goals, be themselves and not relent until they had achieved their goals.

The Dean of Students expressed grave concern about the spate of suicide among students at the tertiary level.

He, therefore, advised students to share their problems with professional counselors and never resort to suicide as the last resort.

Using himself as an example, Prof. Darteh told the students that he had failed many times in his academic career and advised them to see failure as a step to spur on their lives.

The Director of the Centre for Entrepreneurship and Small Enterprise (CESED-UCC), Dr. Edward Nii Amarh Amarteifio, who treated the topic,"Entrepreneurship,"  urged the students to follow their dreams and capitalize on various entrepreneurial opportunities in contributing their quota to the economic development of the country.

Dr. Edward Nii Amarh Amarteifio - Director of CESED

He told the students that the Minister of Finance, Ken Ofori-Atta, informed the 2021 graduating class of the University of Professional Studies-Accra (UPSA) that government’s payroll was full, making it unsustainable to keep adding to employment figures in the public sector, hence the need for them to create their own jobs.

Against that backdrop, Dr. Amarteifio advised the students to take advantage of CESED and the Design Thinking and Innovation Hub at the University to acquire the needed entrepreneurship skillset.

On the same platform, the Director of the Directorate of Academic Affairs, Gideon Enoch Abbeyquaye (Esq), challenged students to use the social media space responsibly in order to remain relevant in a rapidly changing world.

Addressing the students on the topic, "Social Media Branding," he said social media sites such as LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, were effective ways to brand themselves.

Mr. Gideon Enoch Abbeyquaye - Director of the Directorate of Academic Affairs

He noted that most organisations monitored the social media and online platforms of prospective employees before offering them jobs.

The Director explained that for businesses to be successful in today’s digital environment, there was the need for online presence in order to create awareness and attract a larger market.

Mr. Abbeyquaye, however, advised them to be mindful of their engagements on social media as they prepare to get into the corporate world.

A Senior Assistant Registrar at the Office of the Pro Vice-Chancellor, Mr. Alfred Ghartey, who made a presentation on the topic, "Relevance of Personal Grooming," entreated the students to  practice and maintain personal hygiene habits for healthy living.

 

  • Mr. Alfred Ghartey - Senior Assistant Registrar at the Office of the Pro Vice-Chancellor

He took the students through the basic rules of personal grooming and added that it was essential for them to practise personal hygienic habits.

The Pro Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Rosemond Boohene, in a short speech read on her behalf, implored the students to justify the huge investment being made in them by UCC to develop their career and skills potentials for their own good and that of the nation.

Society must address the fundamental causes of ill-health - Prof. Doku

17 Jul, 2023 By DIS

A Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health at the University of Cape Coast, Prof. David Teye Doku, has underscored the need for society to fix the key causes of health inequalities.

According to him, society had deliberately ignored non-medical factors that influence health outcomes of its populace.

Prof. Doku was speaking at his inaugural lecture on the topic, "The Causes of the Causes: Is Society the producer of its own health and ill-health?"

The Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Johnson Nyarko Boampong (L) congratulating Prof. David Teye Doku on his inaugural lecture

To him, society was scratching the surface of the root medical causes of the ill-health of its citizenry, stressing that “the real causes of causes are not what the physicians diagnose at clinics and hospitals."

He, however, pointed out that non-medical factors such as legislation, regulation, local and national policies, lack of potable water, lack of access to formal education, non-functional health insurance scheme, food and food security, among others, were the major contributing differences in the overall health of the citizenry in the society.

"The causes of the causes are in the community. They are both in health and non-health policies.

They are in the employment figures, illiteracy rate, slums, polluted drinking waters and school dropouts. They are even in the schools under trees," he posited.

Members of the College of Professors inducting Prof. David Teye Doku into the College

Prof. Doku further maintained that society had obligation for the public health of its citizens through the provision of social amenities.

He averred that health promotion strategies in the country were ineffective in reducing inequalities "because they fail to tackle the causes of the causes." 

"Most of the public health interventions fail because they are individualistic," Prof. Doku stated.

Prof. Doku being congratulated by his wife and children 

He, therefore, threw a challenge to members of society to hold politicians accountable for the collective good of society, including health.

The Professor of Epidemiology and Public Health indicated that members of society were rather obsessed with their selfish interests than the wider society. 

He recommended health equity in all policies, equitable access to education, gender equity, social protection, access to healthcare, among others, to prevent inequalities in the society.
