Rural development is still an important policy goal in most
developing countries where a high proportion of the population
lives and works in rural areas. This book provides in-depth
empirical discussions of contemporary development issues of rural
development in northern Ghana with wider applicability in terms of
the processes, needs, strategies, and recommendations for policy
for most of the savannah ecological zone of Africa. Although the
rest of Ghana is developing much faster than northern Ghana, its
people perceive substantial positive changes in their conditions of
life as prosperity trickles, albeit slowly down and out to them.
Environmental change and economic globalization is rendering
ineffective the adaptive strategies of poor farmers in northern
Ghana. This book is an important resource for students,
researchers, policy makers and NGOs with interest in rural
development, dry land areas, marginalized areas and general
development. The descriptions and discussions of contemporary
challenges of rural development issues using vivid case studies are
of relevance for comparison to different and similar country
situations.
