“…By these propositions, the central and local governments of Ghana should frame a comprehensive plan, including zoning, transportation, sustainable infrastructure, historic heritage protection, development and investment so as to rebuild the community. Thus, from the development perspective, tourism revenue may be mobilised to minimise poverty among the local community by stimulating business projects and job creation opportunities; that is in principle, compatible with biodiversity conservation, local services and through enhanced education, empower the local people to advocate for the protection of the natural environment (Vadi and Schneider, 2014).…”

Ghana has a coastal line of around 560 kilometres along which Ada and Keta are partly located. Ada is a community in the south-eastern of Ghana, where the Volta River meets the Atlantic Ocean. Keta is also situated in the south-eastern of Ghana and hinges on the Gulf of Guinea, near the Atlantic Ocean that is close to the mouth of the Volta River. Under the Ramsar Convention (1975), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) (1999), included Keta-Anlo Lagoon on the list of Wetlands of International Importance,

Abstract:“Sleepers” are artworks or collectibles that are undervalued because one or more characteristics go unrecognized. This article discusses 12 sleepers that have been sold at auction on the antiquity market since 2007 whose attribution as antiquities were originally overlooked, either accidentally or deliberately. The objects are presented in the context of a theoretical framework describing both the legal and economic incentives to perform due diligence and to reveal, or “awaken,” a sleeper antiquity. The theory implies that sleepers may arise for several reasons, and the case studies are grouped accordingly. Most pressingly, the analysis identifies two ways in which sellers are disincentivized to be transparent about an object’s identity: when they can exploit legal loopholes to deliberately misattribute an antiquity and mediate export and when they can hide disagreement about an object’s authenticity to mediate its sale. Placing the case studies in the broader market context, we highlight particular areas that should be addressed by policy or regulatory reform. The analysis also has wider applications to other forms of art.

“…Hence, information and communication technology is a joint platform of digital and electronic technologies providing easy communication and electronic interaction between humans and information systems (Wang & Law, 2007). Vadi and Hildegard (2014) highlighted that tourism can generate funds for protecting natural areas, enhance local and tourist awareness of biodiversity and conservation issues as well as encourage sustainable livelihoods among local people. Furthermore, Januszewska, Jaremen, and Nawrocka (2015) studied the effects of the usage of Information and Communication Technology and found out the differences in the observed merits and challenges facing its implementation by tourism destinations.…”

This study aimed to assess the perception of tourists on the usage of information and communication technology at Old Oyo National Park, Ikogosi Warm Spring Resort and Lacampagne Tropicana by using structured questionnaire directed at 384 tourists randomly; 20 tourists at Old Oyo National Park, 150 tourists at Ikogosi Warm Spring Resort and 214 tourists at Lacampagne Tropicana. Data was analyzed and presented descriptively using tables and inferentially using one way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results indicated that the tourists mostly made use of internet and social media at the sites. The tourists also perceived that the use of Information Communication Technology would be an innovative approach to solving some of the problems of sustainable tourism development and that use of Information Communication Technology has made work easier and faster. Furthermore, the study indicated significant differences in some socio-demographic characteristics as well as perception on the usage of ICT at the sites (P<0.05). Management of ecotourism sites should therefore create more awareness on the usage of other forms of information communication technology at their sites so as to further enhance tourists’ satisfaction.
