Unequal Climate Resilience: Odawna Residents Left Behind as Accra’s GARID Project Expands

As Ghana intensifies its efforts to combat climate change, the Greater Accra Resilient and Integrated Development Project (GARID) is transforming parts of the capital with upgraded drainage systems, cleaner waterways, and better living conditions in flood-prone communities such as Nima, Alajo, and Akweteman. However, residents of Odawna, just a few kilometers away, say they have been overlooked. Recurrent floods and rising heatwaves continue to disrupt daily life there, exposing deep inequalities in the country’s climate resilience drive. GARID, supported by the World Bank and the Ministry of Works and Housing, was launched to protect vulnerable urban communities from flooding and climate-related shocks.

Residents report safer neighborhoods and a visible decline in flood damage. In […]

World Bank: Poor sanitation costs Africa $200bn yearly

The World Bank has revealed that Africa loses an estimated $200 billion annually due to poor sanitation, warning that the crisis is undermining economic growth, public health, and climate resilience across the continent. In its latest report titled “The Global Sanitation Crisis: Pathways for Urgent Action” released on Tuesday, the Bank said nearly two in five people worldwide lack access to safe sanitation, with Africa carrying a disproportionate share of the burden.

The World Bank identified cholera, diarrhoea, and typhoid as preventable […]
