Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an economy facing fiscal constraints, public spending in the social sectors needs to be linked to outcomes to ensure efficient and equitable delivery of services.Using primary data from the health and education ministries and household survey data from the Ghana Statistical Service, Canagarajah and Ye analyze equity and efficiency issues in public spending on health and education in Ghana in the 1990s.Public expenditures in the education sector declined in the second half of the 1990s. Basic education enrollment has been stagnant or declining in public schools but increasing in private schools, resulting in a moderate increase in total enrollment. Regional disparities are significant, with lower public resource allocations and lower enrollment ratios in the three poorest regions. The quality of basic education in public schools remains poor, while it has steadily improved in private schools. Enrollments in higher levels are lagging behind those in basic education.Ghana ranks high among West African countries in health indicators, although its health expenditures tend to favor the nonpoor. While more of the rural population have gained access to health services in recent years, many still have limited access or none. Moreover, there is no link between the pattern of public expenditures - especially the pattern of immunization across Ghana - and health outcomes.To ensure that social services are efficiently and equitably delivered in a fiscally constrained economy, Canagarajah and Ye argue, public expenditures need to be linked to outcomes.This paper - a joint product of the Ghana Country Department, Country Director Groups, and Macroeconomics 1, Africa Technical Families - is part of a larger effort in the region to undertake and disseminate analytical work on issues related to poverty reduction strategies.

Book Synopsis Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action by : Joe Amoako-Tuffour
Download or read book Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action written by Joe Amoako-Tuffour and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the inception of the HIPC Initiative, the story of the design and implementation of poverty alleviation strategies has largely been told through the filters of development partners and the Bretton Woods Institutions. Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action examines the efforts in Ghana to reduce poverty and initiate changes that it believes are essential to ensure a prosperous future for its citizens in the 21st century. It chronicles the achievements, pitfalls, and looming challenges of a government, its people, and its external partners in fashioning out and implementing anti-poverty and pro-growth policies. This edited volume, by a group of independent researchers, examines Ghana's experience: what was done, how it was done, what was left undone, the lessons learned, and fills the void in the development literature.

Reform of sugar markets needs to go beyond eliminating failed policies, and find lasting solutions.
