Title A name given to the resource The Role of Microfinance in Promoting Women's Empowerment: A Socioeconomic Approach Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Gertrude Amoakohene, Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Joseph Nkyi, Mohammed Musah, Peter Yao Lartey Description An account of the resource Women's economic empowerment is a technique meant to give them more authority over decisions, increase their income, and own assets. Since empowering women is essential to achieving the goals of development and reducing poverty, numerous attempts have been made to address this issue. Microfinance institutions (MFIs) have emerged as key tools over the past few decades to not only address poverty, but also to empower women in particular. It is believed that by employing microfinance, which has been shown to be one of the most effective approaches, women may gain some kind of personal empowerment. The primary objective of this research is to analyse how microfinance affects women's economic empowerment. Microfinance significantly boosts women's independent revenues, their levels of asset ownership, and their savings, which all contribute to their economic empowerment.

Title A name given to the resource Does industrialization promote the emission mitigation agenda of East Africa? a pathway toward environmental sustainability Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Yan Yu, Jingyi Zhao, Mohammed Musah, Michael Owusu-Akomeah, Joseph Akwasi Nkyi, Jing Li, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Emmanuel Attah Kumah, Siqi Cao, Yuxiang Xu, Yingfang Shi, Liqi Wang, Can Hui, Kaodui Li Description An account of the resource Africa’s economy continues to be characterized by increasing environmental pollution caused by anthropogenic activities. Despite the implications of environmental pollution in the continent, little attention has been paid to it, although almost all its countries are signatories to the Paris Agreement. One macroeconomic variable that has proven to be a major driver of environmental pollution in the region is industrialization. However, despite the numerous explorations on the connection between industrialization and environmental degradation, limited studies have examined the linkage amidst the series in East Africa. This study was, therefore, conducted to help fill that gap. In accomplishing this goal, econometric techniques that control cross-sectional correlations, heterogeneity, and endogeneity, among others, were employed for the analysis. From the results, the panel under consideration was heterogeneous and cross sectionally correlated. In addition, the studied series were first differenced stationary and co-integrated in the long run. The elasticities of the regressors were explored via the cross sectionally augmented autoregressive distributed lag (CS-ARDL) estimator, the cross sectionally augmented distributed lag (CS-DL) estimator, and the augmented mean group (AMG) estimator. According to the results, industrialization led to a reduction in the environmental quality in the region through high CO2 emissions. In addition, financial development, foreign direct investments, urbanization, and energy consumption were not environmentally friendly in the bloc.

Title A name given to the resource Promoting carbon neutrality in China: do financial development, foreign direct investment, and industrialization play a material role? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Jun Yan, Kaodui Li, Mohammed Musah, Lijuan Zhang, Yutong Zhou, Dan Gao, Joseph Akwasi Nkyi, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Emmanuel Attah Kumah, Siqi Cao, Linnan Yao Description An account of the resource One of the crucial issues confronting China is high carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Despite the numerous measures outlined to promote the country’s carbon neutrality target, CO2 emissions in the nation continue to increase. This means that more policy options are needed to help improve environmental sustainability (ES) in the nation. Hence, examining the relationship between financial development (FD), foreign direct investment, industrialization, and environmental sustainability in China to provide proper recommendations to drive the carbon neutrality agenda of the nation is deemed fitting. In attaining this goal, time-series data from the period 1990 to 2018 is employed. According to the results, foreign direct investment deteriorates environmental sustainability by promoting more CO2 emissions. This validates the pollution haven hypothesis (PHH). In addition, industrialization and financial development are not friendly to the nation’s environmental quality. Furthermore, economic growth and urbanization escalate environmental pollution in the nation. In addition, the interactions between financial development and foreign direct investment and between financial development and industrialization deteriorate the environment in China. Moreover, foreign direct investment and financial development have an inverted U-shaped association with environmental degradation, but industrialization and environmental pollution are not nonlinearly related. The study advocated for the implementation of measures that could help advance the carbon-neutrality targets of the nation.

Evidence from models that account for cross … Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Yusheng Kong, Mary Donkor, Cheng Jin, Mohammed Musah, Joseph Akwasi Nkyi Description An account of the resource Carbon emissions from anthropogenic human activities are viewed as the major cause of pollution in the environment. The Paris Treaty came into effect to help minimize the galloping rate of global ecological pollution. The surge in global emissions has prompted other nations to change their environmental regulations to help them to attain their emission mitigation agenda. For instance, China, United States and India have improved their Nationally Determined Contributions they pledged as signatories to the Paris Accord to help them to achieve their sustainable development goals But, despite nations committing to the guidelines of this accord, ecological contamination continues to rise in the globe. To help curb the above menace, a study on the connection between financial development, urbanization, economic growth, renewable energy consumption, and environmental quality of 27 countries from North, South and East Africa over the period 1990 to 2019 was conducted. In attaining this goal, econometric techniques that are robust to heterogeneity and residual cross-sectional dependence were deemed appropriate. From the preliminary analysis, the panel was heterogeneous and cross-sectionally dependent. Also, all the series were stationary after first difference and cointegrated in the long-run. On the regression estimates via the common correlated effects mean group technique, financial development improved environmental quality in the North, South and Eastern regions by 0.56%, 0.42%, and 0.44% respectively. Also, renewable energy promoted ecological safety in the Northern and Eastern regions by 0.24% and 0.08% respectively … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Frontiers Media SA Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2024 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=TfIweAkAAAAJ&citation_for_view=TfIweAkAAAAJ:9yKSN-GCB0IC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/9f36cf26a7287eb72a92e51e295e12ea.pdf b2f933612d04b405f712a7fd63cf7a18 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
