Title:	Environmental and Natural Resources Management and Sustainable Rural Development in the Atebubu District, Ghana
Author:	Abonkrah, Charles Kwasi
Description:	Man’s ability to alter his environment to achieve perceived goals has undoubtedly made an enormous contribution to his economic and social well-being. Unfortunately, this ability to alter the environment often outstrips man’s ingenuity to foresee the negative effects these may bring to present and future generations. This study examined the environmental issues in the Atebubu District in the Brong Ahafo Region in Ghana. It investigated the social distribution of environmental benefits in the district. It further examined the weaknesses and threats to the sound environmental management in the area. In anticipation of the realities that will emerge from the field experience, the research used primary qualitative methods, secondary sources and questionnaire survey to gather data for analysis. The study provided an environmental management framework that would enable the district to initiate, plan and implement its environmental policies in a way that would enable it to achieve its sustainable rural development goals.
