In this article a survey was made to assess the level of geographic knowledge of Bahir Dar University undergraduate students. A cross-sectional survey design was employed and data were collected from 452 students through a self-administered questionnaire consisting of 78 test items. Surprisingly, the students’ geographic literacy in all the tests was found to be low. The Mann-Whitney U test also indicated no statistically significant difference in test scores between geography major and non- major students (U = 23159, p = .487). Further study on the teaching and learning process is crucial to address this pressing problem.","PeriodicalId":84617,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Africa social science research review","volume":"179 1","pages":"114 - 97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85554140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rates at which these constraints persist weaken the systematic supply chain of cargo operations at airports. This paper examines the level of the interrelation ships the factors serving as constraints to the efficient operations for air cargo distribution at Accra airport, Ghana. The study employed random sampling technique to survey a total of 154 respondents who were majorly cargo agents and customs officers at Accra airport, Ghana. The result of the Speraman’s Rank correlation analysis of data showed that majority of the variables have significant relationships at p = 0.01 and p = 0.05 with one another to serve as constraints to operational efficiency of air cargo distribution in Ghana. This implies that inefficient cargo operations subsist as a result of the intertwine nature of these factors. The study concludes with policy recommendation on the need to promote efficient cargo operations in Ghana with reduced effect of the joint and individual factor on airport operations.","PeriodicalId":84617,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Africa social science research review","volume":"22 1","pages":"17 - 4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76748482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also harbors a living museum which indicates artistic excellence and innovation of the artisans. The indigenous craft knowledge system was very decisive in producing technology incubating minds and cosmic hands pivotal for the transmission of intellectual traditions and technical skills from generation to generation and for keeping the lamp of civilization burning. However, as time went on the profession lost social support and technological innovation and excellence was declined with alarming rate for the new generation became indifferent towards craft vocation and education. Therefore, this research was conducted to examine the causes for the marginalization of artisans (craftsmen and women) and its concomitant effect on the rural economy in central Tigray. The examination of the date collected from FDG, in-depth interview, observation, informal discussions with various sections of community in the environs of Axum along with secondary document analysis indicated that in spite of the high demand for the products of artisans in the rural economy, artisans are spatially segregated, politically disempowered, economically alienated, socially excluded and subordinated. The causes that produced this paradox include economic competition and the conspiracy of foreign craft workers, power preservation move of feudal technocrats, monastic orders and association of evil eyes to the profession. Hence, the realization of technological renaissance in the country at large and the transformation of the rural livelihood in central Tigray demands to be routed in resuming of the indigenous skills of the crafts men and the demystification of myths held about artisans by empowering them socially, economically and politically.","PeriodicalId":84617,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Africa social science research review","volume":"13 1","pages":"19 - 36"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91543615","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study used personal interviews to collect primary data from WVC actors by using surveys. The data collected came from input suppliers, wheat producers, wholesalers, wheat processors and support institutions. It also made use of empirico-inductive approach and focused synthesis to conceptualize commodity supply and coordination. Mixed sampling techniques (random, census and purposive) were applied to select sampling units. Qualitative analysis, descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression models were used to analyze the set of data. The paper finds that the marketed surplus of wheat significantly increases with landholding, fertilizer used, extension services and the costs of wheat production and negatively associates with information asymmetry and crop rotation. The strategic interactions influence the quantity of a commodity that actors supplied to the markets. It adds new knowledge to the existing theoretical and empirical literature. It may be recommendable to target the efforts in order to improve extension services, reduce information asymmetry and encourage the utilization of wheat technologies to enhance wheat supply.","PeriodicalId":84617,"journal":{"name":"Eastern Africa social science research review","volume":"6 1","pages":"37 - 61"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73213264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
