Title A name given to the resource Emergency Remote Instruction (ERI) in Times of COVID-19 Pandemic: Experiences of Educators at Zimbabwean Higher Education Institutions Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource As part of COVID-19 containment measures, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the rapidly spreading disease to be a pandemic on 11 March 2020, (WHO, 2020), leading to most countries in Africa declaring a state of emergency. Zimbabwe, in particular, declared a state of emergency on 17 March 2020 and resultantly, higher education and tertiary institutions were to close operation by 24 March 2020. Universities, college campuses, and higher education institutions cancelled classes and closed their doors following government directives that aimed to contain the COVID-19 pandemic (Hodge, 2020). Furthermore, a number of universities worldwide shifted to online virtual learning, cancelled the spring break period, and advised international students to return to their home countries. While everyone has been afected by COVID-19, research and experience have shown that of all the sectors of society, including the education sector, particularly at the tertiary level, appear to have been most greatly afected and, therefore, require a more pragmatic approach to resolution (Anifowoshe et al., 2020). https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/25feb70062856a02eeb66b5fea2a8f13.pdf a6ff5ba21bbb0c4466456498ecd5f7bf Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource The saga of the returnee: Exploring the implication of involuntary return migration, for development. A case study of the reintegration process for Ghanaian migrant workers … Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah Description An account of the resource This thesis presents findings from a study that investigated the reintegration experiences of the returned Ghanaian migrants from Libya. The study, which was conducted in four communities employed qualitative methods to uncover the many complexities of involuntary return and its implications for development in southern countries; an under-researched area in the migration-return nexus. The findings highlight the effect of the sudden loss of remittances on family expenditure, especially the education of children, and reveal the coping strategies adopted by returnees in the absence of formal reintegration assistance. Successful reintegration has not occurred for the majority of returnees who are being induced by unfavorable economic circumstances and the absence of reintegration assistance to re-emigrate. The absence of an explicit migration policy has led to the neglect of returnees and caused the nation to miss the potential benefits of return migration for development.

Title A name given to the resource Dark diaspora tourism: Experiences and meanings in liminal spaces Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Felix Elvis Otoo, Esi Akyere Mensah Description An account of the resource Few tourism sites possess the combined attributes of dark tourism and diaspora tourism, and journeys to these liminal spaces can unearth complex and nuanced emotions. While previous studies have added knowledge to the experiences of diaspora tourists, little is known about the liminal experiences at dark diaspora tourism sites. While most studies attempt to explore the experiences of tourists to destinations, there is neoteric interest in understanding the hermeneutics of these experiences by offering insights into the contextual interpretation of events. To investigate these, we integrate liminality and stimulus organism theories within a framework of interpretive phenomenology methodology. Forty interviews were conducted with dark diaspora tourists. The study revealed minor and major themes including enlightenment, visceral conflicts, identity dilemmas, and renegotiation of diasporic experiences.

Title A name given to the resource Household characteristics and waste generation paradox: what influences solid waste generation in Bolgatanga? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Pawin Joseph Sachi, Esi Akyere Mensah Description An account of the resource Municipal solid waste is recognised as an obnoxious local development challenge in many developing countries. The continuous struggle to ensure sustainable waste management in Ghana is a challenge of inadequate data on waste generation and the factors influencing generation. It is in this light that this paper examines waste generation rate and the influence of household socio-economic characteristics on waste generation in Bolgatanga, an urban city in Northern Ghana. The study utilised a regression technique based on ordinary least squares approach to empirically test the relationship between household variables and waste generation. The findings indicate; education, household size and fuel sources are significant but differently influenced waste generation. For effective waste management, the paper suggests a priority focus be given to education and recommends for future studies further analysis of … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Inderscience Publishers (IEL) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=UelpwsoAAAAJ&citation_for_view=UelpwsoAAAAJ:ufrVoPGSRksC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/8b744d3f34dd9e1e8c0afd30446390ca.pdf c81c26e1d5b6fadedfe2f4f3eeff0222 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Will their absence make a difference? The role of local volunteer NGOs in home-stay intermediation in Ghana’s Garden City Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Elizabeth Agyeiwaah, Alexandru O Dimache Description An account of the resource Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in home-stay arrangements in Ghana’s cultural city, Kumasi, and further assess NGO intermediation of home-stay from home-stay operators’ and international volunteer tourists’ perspectives. Design/methodology/approach A mixture of quantitative and qualitative approaches is used to target three main stakeholders of volunteer tourism including international volunteer tourists, home-stay operators, and local NGOs. Findings There are seven major roles played by volunteer NGOs in the home-stay arrangement. However, from operators’ perspective, NGOs may hinder the economic viability of home-stay through inadequate/low payment. Originality/value The study highlights the unexplored brokerage role of NGOs in volunteer tourism in home-stay intermediation and its implications for sustainable tourism.

Title A name given to the resource Re-conceptualizing volunteer tourism organizations roles: A host perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Elizabeth Agyeiwaah, Felix Elvis Otoo Description An account of the resource While volunteer tourism organizations (VTOs) remain important intermediaries in the practice of volunteer tourism, questions remain on the role they play in serving the interests of host communities. This paper explores the role(s) of VTOs in a rural volunteer tourism hub in Ghana from a host community perspective using a phenomenological inquiry. An integrated framework of Critical/Institutional Analysis and Development (C/IAD) was used to examine host community experience with VTOs' role. Data was collected through focus group discussion and in-depth interviews with 43 residents of Asebu - Ghana. The study revealed that while VTOs act as facilitators and interpreters of local culture, issues of over-regulation and protectionism isolate guests from the host as well as rob some host of any meaningful socio-economic benefits and interactions.

This conceptual paper examines responses to COVID-19 by the government of Ghana and its implication for tourism businesses. It discusses weaknesses exposed, and lessons learned by practitioners because of COVID-19. The paper discusses the lack of a centralized database, lack of insurance, and insufficient financial reserves which have left the industry vulnerable in the wake of the pandemic. Based on these, the paper proposes that the Ghanaian tourism industry be sustained by the use of digitalization, social media, and a revived domestic tourism industry.
