Summary
The Resilience Against Climate Change-Social Transformation Research and Policy Advocacy (REACH-STR) Project, has identified capacity gap as the main cause of inadequate incorporation of social transformation analysis in development planning in Ghana.
This arises from a number of sources including; first and foremost a knowledge gap in the research and scientific literature on methodological approaches to analysing social transformation, and weaknesses in institutional capacity for social transformation analyses.
Dr William Quarmine, National Monitoring and Evaluation Researcher, International Water Management Institute (IWMI), blamed it on inadequate funds allocation for in-depth data collection.
