Transcript of A
The dominant religion in Kweiman is Christianity. However, there are also traditional
worshipers. As a Ga community, the festival they celebrate is the Homowo festival.
In terms of economic and financial staus, there is no bank in the community. However, we were
told people form financial institutions come to the community to transact business. Also, there is
no police station in Kweiman. The police are called to the community in times of need.
ANALYSIS ON KWEIMAN
REASON OF HISTORY OF KWEIMAN?
The elders of the community asked why we questioned about the history of the community and
the reply given was that since we will be carrying out our research in the community, we needed
to know about the community, what is expected of us and how we can peacefully interact.
ADVANTAGES OF THE COMMUNITY FROM THE SURVEY
Another question posed by the elders was how the community will benefit from our research. It
was explained that recommendations from this research will help the community make informed
decisions and also know potentials and limitations of the community. Also, it was said that
recommendations from our research could aid bring developmental projects to the community.
ANY PARTICIPANT MOTIVATION?
Lastly, we were asked whether there would be any motivation for participants in our survey,
especially children. We informed them that since our survey is purely academic, it is not a
guarantee; however there could be.
A TOURIST WALKA walk through the community revealed important land marks in the community including a
chief palace, a community center, a road network which passes through the community and links
Madina to Dodowa, a football field just by the community boundary and a forest. Also, there is a
Ghana water company in the community.
