We often say the wealth of every nation is its human resource capital but when that human resource is not contributing to the economy because a larger percentage of the productive force are jobless, how do they begin to create the wealth needed for growth?
Ghana’s economic growth performance has been quite high averaging 5.1% between 1984 and 2010.
A rebasing of the GDP in 2006 pushed the country to join the ranks of lower-middle income countries with the highest GDP GROWTH RATE OF 8.5% in 2008. A recent rebasing has pushed Ghana to middle income status.
But the remarkable growth of 14% in 2012 is yet to translate into generation of productive, decent, and sustainable employment, analysts say.
Despite this, the issue of jobless growth has been widely debated in the media.
Join us tonight as we gauge the track records of the NPP, NDC and CPP over the years and what the three each has to offer in 2013.
