The political administration of the region is through the local government system. A greater proportion of households in Upper East (70.2%) use protected wells and boreholes as their main sources of drinking water. A brief summary of findings is presented before discussing possible interventions. About 56 per cent (55.7 percent) of the labour force is below 35 years. Except in a few towns, majority of the inhabitants live in rural areas with subsistence farms around their houses. One distinct feature of these cottage industries is that they are basically labour intensive and rely mostly on traditional talent and skill. sub ethnic groups in central region of ghana. Small-scale gold mining activities galamsey also draw migrants into the district. Virtually, no industries, There is high incidence of youth migration to the South in the dry season.

This situation is most likely due to the combined effects of the late introduction of Western education, the influence of Islamic religion, general poverty and other cultural practices. Traditional religion is the most common form of worship in the region (46.4%), followed by Christianity (28.3%) and Islam (22.6%). Private basic schools are found in Bolgatanga, Navrongo and Bawku.

Burnt by household implies that the household burns the rubbish and Buried by household is the situation where the rubbish is buried inside or outside the dwelling unit. This is also reflected in a national inter-censal increase which is 2.5 times that of the region. Kassena-Nankana has the highest proportion (29.6%) of localities with a JSS, followed by Bolgatanga (27%), while Bawku West (5.9%) has the least proportion of localities with a JSS. Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese. However, Abubakari (2015) in their study in Northern region, a similar The Oti and Obosum formation have nodular structures and it is intensely weathered. Ghana is an African nation located on the continent's western edge, and it spans an area of roughly 92,497 square miles. The proportion that is grandchildren and other relatives varies from 17.6 per cent in the Builsa, to 31.7 per cent in the Bongo, District. The proportion of boys (76.5%) and girls (77.9%) who are in pre-school is about the same. The Ministry of Healths accessibility standard is to provide 1 health facility within a distance not exceeding 8 kilometres from a locality. This however has to be against the background of a feasibility study with the lifespan of the deposits and a comprehensive environmental impact assessment. Copyright 2020 - CWSA - Baked by Proweb Solutions, The Upper East region is located in the North Eastern part of Ghana covering a total area of 8,842km2. The homeless households constitute 1.0 per cent of the national figure and 0.02 per cent of all households in the region.

The age structure for the sexes shows that at the regional level, there are more males than females at all ages 0-19 years, except for the age group 0-4 years.

While the giant was fighting the last man one night, a woman entered and danced deftly to divert everyone's attention away from the fight.

The proportion of households occupying three or four rooms is highest (45.2%) in Builsa and Bongo (44.1%) and lowest (20.4%) in Bawku East. Even though the regions population growth rate of 1.1 per cent is much lower than the national rate of 2.7 percent, it should nevertheless be of much concern because of the low level of employment and low level of exploitation of available resources within the region to sustain the population. Such efforts should include sensitizing the male population to perceive females as partners in decision-making processes in their respective communities. Males and females show a similar proportional pattern except for the employee category where there are approximately two males to each female employee. Careful assessment is needed to identify policies and interventions, appropriate to meet individual district needs and circumstances.

Production and transport equipment workers constitute a substantial second in all districts except Bawku East, where sales workers are the second major occupation. About two out of every three are in agriculture (66.4%). Although the proportion of females who had never attended school is still higher than that for males, the proportion has reduced from 88.1 per cent in 1984 to 74.4 per cent in 2000. This should involve the collection, analysis and dissemination of population data (baseline demographic surveys, registration of births and deaths), and population information dissemination programmes (awareness programmes on population problems, will encourage the use of population data).

The distribution of children by occupation, industry, and employment status and institutional sector generally follows closely the pattern of the adult population in each district. The slow progress in the development of social services in the region is also highlighted in the fact that post offices, telephones and hospital facilities are available only in the district capitals. No facility means that there is no toilet facility of any kind available for the use of the household and the household members use places other than the above-mentioned, including the bush, field, rivers or streams.

The proportion of the population aged six years or older, who have never attended school varies from 61.2 per cent in Bolgatanga, to 77.8 per cent in the Bawku East, District. The sex composition of the population shows a preponderance of females over males, in all the districts.
