Health Sector Facts and Figures of Ghana

This Dataset shows the modelled parasite rate for Plasmodium falciparum for the years 2000-2015 for all African countries where it is endemic. The Dataset shows the percentage of 2-10 year olds infected by the parasite for each year.

Postharvest loss profiles (PHL profiles) quantify the expected loss – as a percentage – at each point along the postharvest chain. This loss data is collected by reviewing scientific literature and is broken down by crop, type of farm and climate type (based on the Köppen-Geiger climate classification). These profiles provide percentage loss figures for the various crops throughout the value chain under varying conditions and are updated as new research becomes available."   For complete reference information and definitions, Please visit: https://www.aphlis.net/en/page/20/data-tables#/datatables?year=20&tab=references&metric=prc

This dataset provides data on literacy rates, primary and secondary school attendance rates access to improved water and sanitation, household access to electricity, and household ownership of radio and television. Unlike other datasets, notably the World Bank’s World Development Indicators (WDI), this dataset provides data at the subnational level, specifically the first administrative district level. Furthermore, the data is comparable both within and across countries. This subnational level of data allows for assessment of education and household characteristics at a more relevant level for allocation of resources and targeting development interventions.
