VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The author offers a re-reading of South African writer JM Coetzee's novel, The Master of Petersburg (1994), according to which she seeks to answer the question: Why return to this particular novel today? In pursuing the question, she accords a greater directness than hitherto to both religious and political reference. Her point is to locate the novel, both locally and internationally, in a current climate of religious-cum-political demagoguery and conviction. She argues that, in retrospect, we may appreciate Coetzee's uncanny prescience: a vision that evokes the temper of the world today. Central to her analysis is the figure of the 'new man'; forged in radicalised political times and treading a precarious path between faith and unfaith, utopia and delusion, revolutionary fervour and collective amnesia.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article explores local struggles and social solidarity among women farmers at a small farming cooperative: Hleketani Community Garden, in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Such farmers are rarely discussed when exploring sites of resistance to neo-liberal capitalism. These women have had success in reducing poverty and increasing positive health outcomes for their families and community, in an era dominated by agricultural forms (industrial and commercial) that have generally failed to benefit small communities and farmers. The research demonstrates the potential of small-scale collaborative food farming to support personal and broader social resilience, and draws attention to the kinds of structural barriers that continue to militate against small-scale farmers - especially women - achieving a decent life. Poverty reduction, improvements in health, and community building are among the benefits delivered by this community initiative. Lack of access to resources, policy frameworks antithetical to small-scale agriculture, and worsening climate change are among the greatest challenges. Bibliogr., notes, sum.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - John Shannon Saul has described himself as a 'revolutionary traveller'. Over the past five decades (and counting!) he has been involved in profound social, political and economic change in Tanzania, Mozambique and South Africa. These decades saw active building of the left in Canada as well, with Saul working as an activist in the Southern African solidarity movement, challenging Canadian government and corporate collusion with white dictatorship and, later, their participation in the 'recolonisation' of that region. An author (more than 20 volumes and a vast number of academic and popular articles), an editor (This Magazine; Southern Africa Report), and an activist, Saul remains committed to anti-imperialist/anti-capitalist work in Canada, Africa and elsewhere. In this article he reflects on his career working on liberation movements and revolutionary struggles, while at the same time looking forward to new challenges and opportunities. Sum.

With more than two thousand languages being used in Africa, language becomes a highly relevant factor in all sectors of political, social, cultural and economic life. This important sociolinguistic dimension hitherto remains underrated and under-researched in 'Western' mainstream development studies. The book discusses the resourcefulness of languages, both local and global, in view of the ongoing transformation of African societies as much as for economic development. From a novel 'applied African sociolinguistics' perspective it analyses the continuing effects of linguistic imperialism on postcolonial African societies, in particular regarding the educational sector, through imposed hegemonic languages such as Arabic and the ex-colonial languages of European provenance. It offers a broad interdisciplinary scientific approach to the linguistic dimensions of sociocultural modernisation and economic development in Africa, written for both the non-linguistically trained reader as much as for the linguistically trained researcher and language practitioner SN - 1-10-708855-0 AV - AFRIKA 51081 Y2 - 2017/01/02/ M3 - 407567879 ER - TY - JOUR ID - 459 T1 - Language matters! : exploring Promise's use of pedagogic strategies in her mathematics classroom A1 - Naidoo,Jayaluxmi Y1 - 2016/// KW - languages of instruction KW - mathematics education KW - South Africa RP - NOT IN FILE SP - 372 EP - 392 JA - Language Matters: (2016), vol.47, no.3, p.372-392 : ill. VL - 47 IS - 3 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article explores how one teacher, Promise, negotiated the challenges created by the language of instruction in her classroom. The article is part of a broader study in which participation was invited from mathematics teachers in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. Data gathering instruments included a teacher questionnaire, lesson observation schedules, field notes, a teacher interview schedule and a focus group interview schedule for learners. A qualitative analysis at each stage of the study provided data for the subsequent stage. This study was framed using Hill and Ball's 'mathematics knowledge for teaching' framework. The findings suggest that participants incorporated pedagogic strategies in their classrooms to negotiate the challenges arising when learners learned mathematics in a language other than their native language. This article reflects on and describes Promise's pedagogic strategies. Identifying pedagogic strategies that embrace the language of instruction in mathematics classrooms can be of value to mathematics curriculum developers as well as teachers. Bibliogr., notes, sum.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Grassroots political organising came to dominate the political landscape in South Africa in the early 2000s. The main impetus for new forms of community-based protest was the rightward shift in the government's economic policies and the related cut-backs to basic services, such as water and electricity, to township and other impoverished black communities. One of the country's largest and leading social movements during this time was the Anti-Privatisation Forum (APF). This article provides a rare insider's look at the APF - its structures, strategies, politics, tactics and internal challenges. The article draws attention to the considerable success the organisation had both in terms of forcing the state to reform some of its policies in favour of the poor and also in terms of creating new spaces and opportunities for political engagement, although it concludes with a sobering reminder that many of the key factors required to support and sustain democratic and accountable community-based organisations were not present in the APF or other social movements in South Africa.

For most of her later professional career as a teacher of 'creative writing' in the United States, she defied literalisms, dispatching back to her country of birth challenging versions of 'home truths' and increasingly using devious narratorial techniques, even in her novels, becoming a major innovator in the literature of the English-speaking subcontinent.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Conventional wisdom sees education as a primary vehicle through which all people can graduate out of poverty. Education as an instrument of societal change is capable of facilitating a wide range of human rights. However, in many developing countries the education gap seems to be growing within schools in urban, rural and remote areas. The key question is how we translate quality education inputs and processes into desirable outputs and outcomes, thus making teaching and learning inclusive to all the learners. All learners need to have equal access and opportunities in the school system, irrespective of social and cultural background, ethnic identity, gender, religion, social identity and disability. It is against this background that this article explores factors that contribute to low educational participation of children in remote and rural areas of Botswana. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The advent of information, communication and new technologies, globalisation and rising costs has prompted rethinking what we teach, how we teach and even where teaching and learning take place. The Educational Technology and Innovation Course (Adlt704) was designed to enable students to create, use and manage appropriate technological processes and resources to facilitate teaching and learning. A semi-structured interview schedule and semi-structured questionnaire instrument were used for data collection. A purposive opportunity sampling method was applied. Thematic and simple descriptive analyses were employed to interpret results. The students attested to the benefits of using technology to learn, but also faced challenges including poor internet connectivity and power fluctuations. It was concluded that educational technology contributes to a better learning outcome than face-to-face teaching and learning. Faster and cheaper internet connectivity, highly powered generators and effective student support services were some of the recommendations made. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Examining South African retail workers, the article explores some of the complexities and limitations of rights-based demands for national inclusion. The article describes black workers' historical exclusion from workplace participation and employment rights under the apartheid regime, and the particular ways they sought to be incorporated into workplace decision-making processes and labour law. South African retail workers' struggles for 'inclusion' were successful at one level: black workers were finally incorporated as 'employees' into national labour legislation and as citizens. Yet, not all black workers were equally incorporated, particularly, those employed in casual or contract jobs. Drawing on Wendy Brown's work on the relationship between freedom and equality, the article argues that the way in which claims for inclusion were made contributed to the reproduction of new divisions - new exclusions in the workplace - and has continued to shape workers' actions.

It argues that gardening is a significant trope in the novel where the Campbells' meticulous tending of their garden echoes their efforts to cultivate and nurture white identities by repressing their coloured past. The article employs Zygmunt Bauman's idea of 'the gardening state' to appreciate the Campbells' attempts to cultivate whiteness in an apartheid environment that encouraged the cultivation and maintenance of whiteness as a superior racial category. The article also refers to Hellen Lynd and Gershen Kaufman's postulations about the visual/public nature of shame as well as Freudian idea of the uncanny to explain a sense of shame and fear of the repressed that underlies the Campbells' passing for white.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article examines two sharply divergent cases of urban land justice. Cato Manor is a massive, low-income housing project in central Durban that largely excluded land restitution claims to redress apartheid- and colonial-era forced removals from the area, and Cape Town's District Six is currently being developed for resettlement by land restitution claimants, thus far without incorporating potential housing beneficiaries. The article critically appropriates Nancy Fraser's work to conceptualise land restitution as a demand for 'recognition' and housing as a form of 'redistribution', and considers how these programmes might be reconciled in an integrated framework of justice. A more fundamental problem, however, is that these official programmes of justice administration fail to adequately deal with the basic demands for shelter and land in South Africa's vast, informal settlements, and the article concludes that the primary imperative of justice is for far-reaching urban land reform.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article offers an investigation of social policy discourse with specific regard to the ways in which interventions aimed at addressing poverty and social inequality have conceptualised welfare, social assistance and social security. It argues that the post-1994 African National Congress (ANC)-led government has placed a priority on waged employment and labour market participation as the preferred route to social inclusion and social security, to the detriment of universal redistributive programmes not associated with paid work. The state's promotion of a form of social disciplining centred on wage labour has clashed with the material reality of spiralling unemployment and the proliferation of precarious and unprotected occupations. This disjuncture raises important questions concerning the capacity of the new institutional dispensation to govern South Africa's long transition - or even the ability of the ANC to justify their policy decisions to their core constituency.

For many his work was marked by its strong commitment to structural and symbolic interpretation, which is particularly apparent in his work on West African masking rituals, on Ingessana religious institutions and, in a different way, in his work on dreams. But he also worked on agriculture and 'deep rurals' and did consultancies for development organisations. He wrote about female rain makers in Eastern and Central Africa, and later his work became increasingly historically focused, exploring the transition of Sudanese peoples from the fringes of 19th-century, 'pre-modern' states into 'modern' 20th-century tribes, anticipating a renewed historical sensibility in Africanist anthropology. This issue contains a collection of essays by former colleagues and students, several of which were first presented at the University of Edinburgh's annual Charles Jedrej Lecture in Africanist Anthropology. After the introductory article, there is first a lesser known article by Jedej himself.

VL - 13 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - By drawing on a theoretical framing based on the geography of encounters, this article examines how South African students from the School of Eduaction give meaning to racialised encounters on campus. These encounters are mediated by long established notions of difference based on power inequalities where race remains a powerful source of difference. However, race is not simply enacted but produced as it weaves through student friendships, heterosexual partnering and through language. By focusing on the construction of race in student encounters on campus, the article uncovers the points at which students produce relations of inequalities, their contestations and the continuities in racialised power structures. The article concludes by pointing to the value in understanding the race-friendship-heterosexual-language tension, which might help work towards understanding and addressing inequalities based on locally relevant interventions on campus.

VL - 34 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - The South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) has played a key role in advancing interracial reconciliation in South Africa, and has become a model to illustrate how transitional justice interventions can be used to heal divided societies and advance reconciliation. While acknowledging its achievements, this article emphasises the importance of socioeconomic justice to the TRC's objectives, and critically assesses the adequacy of the TRC's reparation programmes in addressing continuing structural and socioeconomic inequalities in the country. One overall weakness in the Commission's work was its narrow mandate of investigating gross human rights violations, which meant the TRC contributed to exposing only some 'truths' while obscuring others. A detailed exploration of the TRC's institutional mechanisms reveals that the Commission's lack of focus on socio-economic justice has served to limit its overall contribution to reconciliation.

VL - 47 IS - 3 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This paper reports on South African students' opinions of the effectiveness of social and affective teaching strategies to improve their reading proficiency. An intervention, based on Guthrie and Wigfield's (2000) engagement model, was conducted using two groups of first-year students of the University of Pretoria, classified as High Risk and Low Risk. Interviews were conducted with selected students, and their responses were analysed using content analysis. The responses of the students suggested a relationship between socio-affective strategies and students' reading proficiency. Students reported that they were motivated to put more effort into reading to improve their reading proficiency when social and affective strategies were used in reading instruction. The paper argues that as reading is a social, affective and cognitive activity, and given that a number of students have been disadvantaged by their backgrounds in developing appropriate affective and cognitive reading literacy levels, reading instruction should include socio-affective strategies in order to address students' reading challenges more efficiently.

VL - 47 IS - 3 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - In this article, the authors provide a systematic study of the extent and influence of the ideology of purism in Afrikaans historical linguistics. The study takes the form of a critical discourse analysis that indicates how the nationalistic, puristic ideologies of Apartheid were transferred - implicitly and explicitly - to linguistic descriptions of the history of Afrikaans. The authors firstly engage in a discussion of purism - specifically genetic and sanitary purism - and the role of nationalism in linguistic purism. They then divide the historical linguists of Afrikaans into three categories that do not correspond to certain periods very strictly, but follow a chronological order to some extent: the pre-philological, philological, and alternative schools of thought. Finally, they trace how Afrikaans historical linguistics practiced significant erasure in the name of purism at first, transferring certain aspects of nationalism and purism to scientific inquiry, to then become less puristic and more inclusive with time, as is especially the case with the alternative school of thought.

VL - 47 IS - 3 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - In low- and middle-income countries, there is an increase in the prevalence of developmental delays. In a financially-restricted but linguistically diverse South African primary health care context, adapting assessment tools may be more appropriate than developing new ones. The current study aimed to compare outcomes of the English Parents' Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS) and the Northern Sotho PEDS (PEDS-NS), and to determine language preference. The PEDS was translated into Northern Sotho and back-translated. A panel evaluated the translation to determine the appropriateness of the tool. A total of 95 caregivers were selected via convenience sampling. Participants had to adhere to specific selection criteria. High referral rates were reported, which may be due to participants being from underserved communities. Positive and negative correspondence of the PEDS-NS was high. This proved that the PEDS-NS is an accurate translation of the PEDS. Significant association (p = 0.021) was observed between age and respondents' language preference. Bibliogr., sum.

VL - 122 IS - 4 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This paper critiques the attempt by Nigerian Breweries Plc (NB, a subsidiary of Heineken) to increase its use of local raw materials for beer brewing. It argues that the greatest threat to this initiative has been the inconsistent Nigerian Government policies, especially with respect to promoting and encouraging the cultivation of local raw materials for beer production. Policy reversals in this direction have helped to slow down the backward integration initiative of the government aimed at replacing imported barley with local sorghum as the main ingredient for beer production in Nigeria. While NB can help to fund research into the development of high yield sorghum hybrids, the task of ensuring the widespread and proper use of such seeds by local farmers will depend on the existence of a supportive and effective national agricultural policy. The development and operationalization of such a policy cannot be outsourced to multinational beer companies by the Nigerian Government. Ref., sum.

VL - 47 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - This article provides a qualitative description of current patterns of linguistic diversity in Namibia's capital city, Windhoek, using as its main source of data perceptions elicited from an ethnically representative sample of Windhoek residents on language-related themes. The data suggest that the pre-independence diglossic pattern which involved Afrikaans as high-status language and ethnic indigenous languages as low-status languages is giving way to a triglossic pattern dominated by English - the country's only official language since 1990. Indigenous ethnic languages are still hardly used for inter-ethnic communication, which seems to be a correlate of 'hard' inter-ethnic boundaries inherited from apartheid. Instead, the dominant linguistic patterns of informal inter-ethnic communication in Windhoek rely either mostly on English, or on mixed linguistic repertoires combining 'Coloured Afrikaans' and English. Which of the two linguistic options dominates depends on the interactants' race, ethnicity, length of stay in Windhoek, and social networks. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

VL - 28 IS - 2 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - In 'Begging to be black', Krog grapples with the idea of the vulnerable body as a response to Njabulo S Ndebele's inaugural Steve Biko Memorial Lecture (delivered in 2000). She expresses her loyalty to literary non-fiction in somatic terms: she hopes that it allows her potentially to discover a 'thinning of skin' that avoids the imaginative challenges of fiction. The author shows how Krog responds to Ndebele's speech through two key intertexts in 'Begging to be black', and asks whether the preoccupation of the text with the idea of the vulnerable body paradoxically elides the particularities of embodied experience. 'Begging to be black' incorporates J M Coetzee's Disgrace (2000 [1999]) and Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness 1988 [1899] in order to test the limits of the sympathetic imagination and understand what it means to share in bodily vulnerability, particularly in the light of racially differentiated experience.

The disintegration of the USSR into component ethnic groups, likewise the separation of Czechoslovakia into two states, and the civil war in former Yogoslavia indicates just how fragile national boundaries can be even in Old World European nations. The British colonial government, to mitigate against the forces of ethnic rivalry, sought to 'channel irreconcilable inter-ethnic hostility and conciliation and federal cooperation by creating three federal states.' Similar moves were made in other colonies during this period. The irony, however, is that if the intention was to use such policies to engineer national integration by emphasizing diversity in order to enhance unity, the opposite appears to have been the outcome. Traditionally, the newspaper press is considered as the one of the media of mass communication that serves as a channel of communication between politicians and the public; it follows that journalists have an important role to play in diffusing ethnic tension and publishing the truth SN - 978-92110-9-0 pbk AV - AFRIKA 50986 Y2 - 2017/01/02/ M3 - 407534113 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 490 T1 - Rhodes rage : cartoons from Mail & Guardian, Sunday Times and The Times A1 - Zapiro Y1 - 2015/// KW - cartoons (form) KW - politics KW - South Africa RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 160 CY - Auckland Park PB - Jacana U2 - w05 SN - 1-431-42255-X AV - AFRIKA 51404 Y2 - 2017/01/02/ M3 - 408713097 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 496 T1 - S‚raphin Ngondo A Pitschandenge : vie et oeuvres d'un Professeur Em‚rite A1 - Mandjwandju Mabele,Odon Y1 - 2015/// N1 - Bibliogr.: p. 139-141. - Met noten KW - academics KW - bibliographies (form) KW - biographies (form) KW - Democratic Republic of Congo KW - demographic research RP - NOT IN FILE EP - 141 CY - Paris PB - L'Harmattan U2 - w05 N2 - Ce livre est une biographie sur S‚raphin Ngondo A Pitschandenge, premier d‚mographe congolais, qui a consacr‚ son existence … l'enseignement et … la recherche au sein de l'Universit‚ congolaise.

The desert in this novel is both painstakingly specific and literal and also entirely mythological (usurya), which serves as a device to call into question the legitimacy or even reality of neocolonial power structures. By putting this novel in conversation with Western theories of categorization (following Agamben's work on the human-animal distinction) and looking at intertextual resonances with the Buddhist Jtaka tale 'The Banyan Deer', explicit and implicit references to Islamic scriptures, and the preponderance of Sufi and Tuareg imagery and symbolism, the author argues that this novel questions the primacy or validity of Western novelistic and philosophical structures and offers an alternative, spiritually based 'reading' of the desert as both metaphor and ecosystem, based on balance and interconnection.

VL - 46 IS - 3 U2 - w05 U3 - Abstract available N2 - Amadou Hampƒt‚ Bƒ addresses the colonial system directly in the two volumes published from his posthumous memoirs, 'Amkoullel, lenfant peul' and 'Oui mon commandant!'. From an ethical point of view, the memorialist evokes colonization in a profoundly ambivalent way, alternating condemnation with positive evaluations without explicit contradiction. In this article, the author's hypothesis is that this ambivalence toward colonialism in all of its aesthetic, generic, and sociological components is at the heart of the stance of an African memorialist writing in French. The memoirs are the site of a reflexivity that sheds light on the complex affects and feelings of an author caught between precolonial, colonial, and postcolonial societies. Bƒ combines these contradictory influences by giving a retrospective with unified meaning through spiritual elevation. In this way, writing is a search for compromise and legitimization inscribed in its very form. Bibliogr., notes, ref., sum.

It is the work of Kenyans, meant to foster development in Kenya. It is fairly clear that these externally driven strategies along with poor and less participatory governance has not been effective enough to move African economies forward. It is therefore important that locally generated strategies, informed by locally relevant evidence, especially research, are pursued. It is anticipated that such a development in concomitance with globally proven practices would have the potential of anchoring a transformative impact on African economies, including that of Kenya SN - 978-9966-27000-9 AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2017/01/30/ M3 - 408425296 L3 - http://www.asclibrary.nl/docs/408425296.pdf http://www.trustafrica.org/en/publications-trust/books-and-ebooks ER - TY - BOOK ID - 506 T1 - Report on the aggregation and reconciliation of oil and gas sector payments and receipts 2010-2011 Y1 - 2013/// N1 - Met bijl., samenvatting KW - accounting KW - Ghana KW - petroleum industry RP - NOT IN FILE CY - Achimota PB - Ministry of Finance and Economic Planning (Ghana Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative-GHEITI) U1 - Free access.

The assessment was based on debt-to-GDP ratios and the fiscal approach to debt sustainability, which can only provide backward-looking analysis. The dearth of debt data did not permit the use of the traditional forward-looking approaches based on NPVs. The results found Ghana's debt to be unsustainable during 2000-2002/03 and sustainable during 2004-2012. The results are generally consistent with those obtained for Ghana by the IMF and World Bank under the HIPC and new Debt Sustainability Framework (DSF). The study stresses the importance of keeping the fiscal deficit under control to serve as a policy buffer and macroeconomic stability anchor and using borrowed resources judiciously to generate growth in order to maintain long-term debt sustainability AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2017/01/31/ M3 - 408425369 L3 - http://ieagh.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Monograph.pdf ER - TY - BOOK ID - 518 T1 - Integrated business survey, 2010 Tanzania mainland Y1 - 2012/// N1 - Met bibliogr., bijl Bevat ook: Technical report ; Construction industry analytical report ; Distributive trade analytical report KW - business KW - construction industry KW - statistics KW - Tanzania KW - trade RP - NOT IN FILE CY - Dar es Salaam PB - National Bureau of Statistics, Ministry of Finance U1 - Free access.

VL - 37 IS - 1 U2 - w05 N2 - The expansion of cities in the developing economies of the world has one major urban corollary: the proliferation of unplanned parts of the cities, identified by a plethora of terminologies including bidonville, favela, ghetto, informal settlement, shantytown, spontaneous settlement, squatter settlement and township. Such urban conurbations are characterised by a unique form of architecture that historians find difficult to define. The fact that these architectural productions are overlooked by the historiography of modern architecture suggests a narrowed classoriented reading of the aesthetics engendered by the Modern Movement in architecture. Any paradigm introduced to bridge the existing gap should go beyond questions of construction methods and materials, and demonstrate a thorough understanding of the experiences of everyday life in such habitations, that is, the rise of modernity. This paper argues that the social environments which facilitated the development of the architecture of the underprivileged residents in African cities began in the late nineteenth century, when the great capitalist cities of the world began to emerge and expand. We expand on this position by examining the architectural construction of the underprivileged classes from four perspectives: a new urban culture of building practices; radical solutions proposed and provided by governments and agents of social change; visual and literary commentaries by artists and writers; and a survey of the writings of architectural historians on these themes AV - Elektronisch artikel Y2 - 2017/01/02/ M3 - 408727497 L3 - http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/02533952.2011.569996 ER - TY - BOOK ID - 524 T1 - The African Capacity Building Foundation : rising to the challenge of capacity through a unique and innovative framework A1 - Ofosu-Amaah,W.Paattii Y1 - 2011/// N1 - Met noten, samenvatting KW - Africa KW - capacity building RP - NOT IN FILE CY - Harare PB - African Capacity Building Foundation (ACBF) U1 - Free access. U2 - w05 T3 - ACBF Development Memoirs Series ; no. 7, 2011 N2 - The birth of the African Capacity Building Foundation on February 9, 1991, was the culmination of intense efforts and groundbreaking commitment to capacity building in Africa by Africa Governors of the World Bank, the Bank itself and the co-founding Institutions - the African Development Bank and the United Nations Development Program, as well as numerous other individuals. The successes chalked by ACBF towards attainment of its objectives have vindicated those who held the view that establishing an indigenous African institution, with focus on and commitment to the course of Africa's development was the right course of action at the time. Twenty years on, ACBF has supported nearly 250 projects and programs in 44 African countries and committed more than US$400 million to build capacity on the continent. Projects and programs supported by the Foundation have drawn synergy with and complemented countless other activities of various development institutions operating on the Continent. ACBF's support has been crucial in the building of development capacity in Africa, whether in ministries of finance and economic planning or central banks.

U2 - w05 T3 - IEA monograph ; no. 36 N2 - The Ghanaian financial sector has been growing rapidly. It is, however, not clear how "financial intermediation" and "financial deepening" have been evolving. Further, the cost of credit has been persistently high, which stifles investment and economic growth. The reasons have not been fully investigated and documented. The paper seeks answers to these questions by applying a combination of analytical and survey investigative methods. The paper finds that financial intermediation and financial deepening are low and depict Ghana's financial sector as still "shallow." The paper also finds that, from the point of view of surveyed banks - which is also reflective of widely-perceived views - the persistent high cost of credit is primarily the result of competitive government borrowing, high cost of bank funds and high lending risks. The paper proposes interventions to address these deficiencies in the financial sector AV - Elektronisch document Y2 - 2017/01/31/ M3 - 408425377 L3 - http://ieagh.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Monograph-No.-36Financial- intermediation-and-the-cost-of-credit-in-Ghana.pdf ER -
