▼ The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which were adopted in September 2015 represent a challenging worldwide action plan that aims to end poverty, achieve gender equality, in diverse dimensions, promote decent work among others. The International community agreed on 17 SDG which is very impressive in its content. Global realization of the SDGs by 2030 is highly dependent on the localization and effective implementation of the goals, yet little is known about diverse perspective of SDG localization and challenges involved. It is in response to this that the study examines the magnitude to which SDGs have been integrated into local development plan using Adentan and La-Nkwantanang Madina as a case study. A qualitative method with an interview of 20 key informants was adopted. The study developed a conceptual framework which was used to examine Adentan and La-Nkwantanang municipal on SDG mainstreaming. The study also did a critical analysis of the medium term development plans of the two municipals to comparatively identify which among the two municipals have effectively mainstreamed the SDGs. The findings from the study disclosed that the authorities are aware of the SDGs. The majority of the SDGs (1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,13,14,16 and 17) have been integrated into the local development plan of the two Assemblies. However SDG 7 and 15 were of no interest to the two municipal and SDG 12 in the case of La-Nkwantanang Madina municipal. The findings further indicated that financing, low awareness of the relevance of the SDGs among the communities in two municipalities and bureaucracy are the major challenges of SDG mainstreaming at the local level. The study proposed a framework which extends the theory of change on effective SDG mainstreaming and can be added to other existing framework on SDG mainstreaming at the local level addressing the challenges and needs of SDG mainstreaming for development initiative and may inform future research in mainstreaming and planning.

▼ The developing world is challenged with a large number of persons involved in less productive and vulnerable employment. Ghana is not an exemption. This limits the country’s effort towards a successful achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, particularly Goals 1, 8 and 10 which relate to ‘no poverty’, ‘decent work and economic growth’ and ‘lower inequality’, respectively. This study broadly examines the role of employment in explaining welfare in Ghana. To analyse this broad objective, the study carries out separate analyses to examine three specific research objectives and corresponding questions. The study contributes to the literature by analysing the effects of different groups of employment status on rural-urban household consumption welfare. Using data from the seventh round of the Ghana Living Standards Survey conducted in 2016/17 (GLSS7), the study finds higher returns to non-farm self-employed with employees (employers) than other forms of employment status. Non-farm self-employed without employees (own-account) and formal employees contribute to improving household welfare at the lower and more upper quantiles, respectively. Returns to non-farm own-account are found to be generally higher than agricultural own-account. The study finds detrimental effects of informal paid employment, unpaid employment, inactivity and unemployment on welfare. It shows clear consumption inequality gaps between rural and urban households, with the latter reporting a higher welfare at the mean and along all quantiles than the former. The observed inequality gaps are wider among the poorer than richer households. These gaps are primarily due to the differences in returns to observable characteristics between rural and urban households. Among others, employment, education and household size contribute most to explaining the observed rural-urban inequality gaps in Ghana. Also, the study contributes to the literature by examining the degree and determinants of employment diversification within and across the agricultural, services and industry sectors among rural households. Relying on data from the fifth and seventh rounds of the Ghana Living Standards Surveys conducted in 2005/06 and 2016/17 respectively (GLSS5 and GLSS7), the study reveals a greater degree of employment diversification within the agricultural sector followed by the services and industry sectors, respectively. Further, it is established that factors such as gender, marital status, education, landholdings, location, seasonal migration and infrastructural development remain key determinants of the on-going employment diversification in rural Ghana. For instance, being a female-head relative to being a male-head lowers employment diversification within the agricultural sector but increases diversification within the non-farm sectors (services and industry). In the same vein, infrastructural development in rural communities largely favours a higher degree of employment diversification within the non-farm sectors as compared to the agricultural…

▼ The United Nations has voiced its support for the use of citizen science to aid ambient water quality monitoring for the Sustainable Development Goals. Engaging the efforts of both professional scientists and members of the general public, citizen science has gained significant attention in recent years as a means of increasing the spatial and temporal coverage of data collection. However little research has been conducted on the use of citizen science in water quality monitoring for the UN Sustainable Development Goals to allow for the establishment of any sort of monitoring framework involving citizen science. A literature review as part of this thesis discusses the current state of knowledge on volunteer involvement in water quality monitoring and identifies the challenges and opportunities for applying citizen science to the monitoring of ambient water quality under the Sustainable Development Goals. Considerable potential exists for citizen science to contribute to the SDGs yet concerns over data collection, use and organisational issues like lack of volunteer motivation and interest continue to plague the realm of volunteer monitoring and inhibit its use in many fields. Based on the conclusions drawn from the literature, this thesis aimed to address each key issue which currently presents a challenge for the application of citizen science to the monitoring of ambient water quality for the Sustainable Development Goals. In support of work towards the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 6: “Clean Water and Sanitation”, this thesis tested the use of simple and inexpensive field equipment by citizen scientists for monitoring the SDG Indicator 6.3.2: “Proportion of bodies of water with good ambient water quality”. Data generated by 26 citizen scientists were compared with the results produced by an accredited laboratory. The results compared well for most parameters, suggesting that citizen science may be able to contribute towards monitoring ambient water quality for the Sustainable Development Goals as long as data quality is maintained. This thesis also examined the effects of participation in an SDG-focused citizen science water quality monitoring programme on volunteers’ attitudes and interests. The positive results support conclusions from other studies suggesting that experience of partaking in citizen science may increase volunteer interest and positively influence attitudes towards global environmental issues, though the resulting influence on behaviour will require further investigation. Lastly, through a focus on waterbodies of known water quality in southwest Ireland, this thesis aimed to assess one potential method for incorporating citizen science data into the reporting methodology for the ambient water quality indicator. The investigation reported mixed results, revealing that the incorporation of citizen science data into the reporting methodology through the method employed would be relatively simple, however more recent data is needed from professional organisations on the quality of the… Advisors/Committee Members: Chapman, Deborah, Sullivan, Timothy.

▼ Background: Exclusive breastfeeding is essential for optimal survival, development and growth of infants. World Health Organization and United Nations Children’s Fund recommend that infants are exclusively breastfed from birth up to six months of age to achieve its benefits. However, exclusive breastfeeding rates across the world and in Ghana are below the recommended targets. This study’s aim was to investigate the socio demographic factors, socio-cultural factors as well as identify attitudes mothers have that influence breastfeeding exclusively in the Kintampo-North Municipality. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was carried out among 357 women of reproductive age (15-49 years) with infants zero to six months attending child welfare clinic in Kintampo. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with closed ended questions. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to test for strength of association of socio-demographic characteristics, socio-cultural characteristics and attitudes of participants with exclusive breastfeeding. Results: The proportion of participants that practiced exclusive breastfeeding was 68.6%. Participants who had tertiary education were 3.32 times more likely to exclusively breastfeed compared to participants with no formal education. Participants who were semi-skilled and skilled were less likely to exclusively breastfeed. Being a professional and other government employee were associated with the likelihood of breastfeeding exclusively. Again, participants who relied on Midwife/Nurse for breastfeeding information were more likely to exclusively breastfeed compared to those who relied on their mother in-law. Participants with cultures that had beliefs of giving baby water to drink before/during bathing were more likely to breastfeed exclusively compared to those with no belief of giving water. An association was found between participants whose culture indicated that breastfeeding is good with the likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding. Furthermore, participants who said it was difficult for them to breastfeed exclusively for six months and those who said it was difficult to breastfeed on demand were less likely to exclusively breastfeed. Conclusion: Exclusive breastfeeding practice is sub-optimal in Kintampo-North Municipality. Exclusive breastfeeding practice is influenced by participants’ level of education, most usual occupation source and most relied source of information on breastfeeding. Health staff should intensify awareness of exclusive breastfeeding and its benefits to mothers, their spouses, families, traditional leaders and influential persons in community. Furthermore, health staff should build mother’s confidence by teaching appropriate techniques in expressing, storing and cup/spoon feeding.

▼ The current model of global development driven by Western neoliberal ideology has been considered indispensable to ensure economic growth, as well as national and individual wealth and wellbeing but at the same time, critics claim that people and the environment suffer wherever this form of development is present. This creates a paradox. Religious and spiritual communities express their concerns. They scrutinise this corporate-led form of global development that seems to further self-serving interests against the common good. It stands in stark contrast with the ideals and teachings that are at the heart of all the great religious and spiritual traditions of the world and the universal values that promote peace, justice, and harmony. Bauman and Donskis (2013) suggest keeping an eye on that which is disturbing, an “ethical gaze” (p.9) on the dominant forms of market-driven global development based on neoliberal capitalist ideology. Drawing on the work of Seo and Creed (2002), my research analysed the contradictions and paradoxes in the narrative of the western neoliberal model of global development. The 2015 United Nations (UN) Climate Change Conference endorsed a set of seventeen goals to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In the light of these calls and to hold my ‘ethical gaze’, I bring fresh insights from the voices the Parliament of the World’s Religions (PoWR), as one of the voices that increasingly associate the prevailing form of globalisation with the observable degradation in human and planetary wellbeing, in support of the UN SDGs. The primary purpose of my research is to illuminate the ways that people of faith (as represented by PoWR), through their convictions and practices of faith, progress their intention to influence aspects of global justice and environmental responsibility as promoted by the SDGs. My research is based on a qualitative research approach in accordance with an interpretative paradigm. I analysed the speeches and talks by influential faith leaders, scholars and activists at the 2015 PoWR gathering who presented their concerns and aspirations for peace, justice, and environmental sustainability on the critical issues of climate change, income inequality, and war, hate, and violence. Using Braun and Clarke's (2006) thematic analysis and Aristotle’s rhetorical analysis of persuasive appeals, my inquiry explores the range of views on the causes of and the remedies for human and environmental degradation. Several themes were identified regarding the causes of such degradation. The remedies proposed are the collective commitments of all to take radical action and to act upon the values of religious and spiritual traditions as outlined in the Principles of Global Ethic derived from diverse religious and spiritual traditions. This research extends the understanding of both the theory of institutional logics and rhetorical discourse for change. It also holds an ethical gaze on neoliberal discourses.

▼ In partnership with the Canadian Government, the University of Saskatchewan, Nelson Mandela Institute of Science and Technology, and the local Tanzanian non-governmental organization Green Hope, the Mama Kwanza Socio-economic Health Initiative (MKSHI) provides health care and social services to people throughout the Arusha region of Tanzania. This doctoral work draws on the experiences of one critical group served by the Mama Kwanza initiative – adolescent girls no longer engaged in formal education. Viewed as “critical agents for change” (United Nations Development Program, 2014), the girls, their capacities and competencies within informal networks, are pivotal for their development and growth. Skills and competencies needed within informal sectors, such as communication, negotiation, cooperation, and critical thinking, rely on the development of social skills and spheres. Sachs (2015a) argues that social development and solidarity is both the root and solution to the problem of equity and sustainability. As a pillar within the current global approach to development, the social dimensions of development required to support the girls at this critical stage of adolescence is crucial, with intergenerational implications. This work examines the Mama Kwanza project as a development partnership from a collectivist epistemological approach. The key argument of this work is that social development, as a pathway for transformative change toward a global culture of equity and sustainability, must be directed by collectivist and relational traditions. Using participatory and ethnographic research methods, a gender-based analysis using Anderson and Woodrow’s (1998) Capacity and Vulnerability Analysis (CVA) framework is conducted to assess the vulnerabilities and capacities of the girls engaged in the Mama Kwanza program. Given the strengths and capabilities of the girls, this work discusses the indicators of social development put forward by the World Bank (2018) and concludes that relational approaches to research, practice, and partnership supports the mutual interest, benefit, responsibility, and respect in the effort to support sustainable development, address global fragilities, and ‘leave no one behind’ (United Nations, 2018a).

▼ Universal full coverage of birth registration by 2030 is one of the sustainable development targets which itself is of great significance for the accomplishment of many development goals such as poverty eradication, inclusion, as well as improvement of several health factors. Despite the importance of this topic, not much academic attention has been paid to study the problem of birth under-registration from the perspective of development studies. This research studies the issue of birth under-registration through a case study of Iran. The four main questions of this research are the quantitative significance of the problem, the main causes of birth under-registration, the most affected social groups, and the main problematic domain of action, in the context of Iran. By utilizing an abductive content analysis method, this research aims to understand the problem, rather than proposing policy recommendations. This desk study uses secondary sources and almost all of the sources are of qualitative nature. It is not based on any pre-defined theory and therefore does not aim to generalize nor theorize the findings. It, however, is based on available theories for developing the analytical framework. The adopted analytical framework is Bottleneck analysis which is a method designed by UNICEF specifically for the purpose of birth registration programming and policy evaluation. Birth under-registration in Iran - compared to other countries in the region - turned out to be very low. The findings provide information on many good practices regarding birth registration programming and also about several areas in need of improvement in Iran. By applying the analytical framework to the findings, identified disincentives have been categorized in three domains of supply, demand, and enabling environment, and the significance of disincentives in each domain has been assessed. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that almost all of the main causes of birth registration are of legal nature, especially patriarchal nationality laws. Also, it was found that the main risk groups were children of illegal immigrants, non-nationals, and unregistered parents, and the main problematic domain is found to be the domain of supply.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, more commonly known as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), was launched in September 2015. The SDGs are a global target-setting development agenda aimed at ending poverty, protecting the planet, and ensuring peace and prosperity for all by 2030. The SDGs have been lauded for vastly improving on their predecessor, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), by broadening the global development agenda to include environmental, social, economic and political concerns, and for, in the process of their formulation, engaging with member states and civil society groups. The SDGs can further be commended for broadening the scope of the targets under the goal on gender equality and women’s empowerment, and for recognising that gender equality has social, economic and political dimensions. This study employs a postcolonial feminist theoretical framework to critique the SDGs and to make recommendations on how these critiques can inform South Africa’s implementation of the SDGs, with the ultimate aim of achieving substantive gender equality and women’s empowerment in the country. The study argues that the MDGs and South Africa’s National Development Plan (NDP) have failed to guarantee gender justice because they are anchored in two cognate theoretical approaches – liberal feminism and economic neoliberalism – that prioritise economic growth over addressing the structural drivers of women’s subordination and oppression. In contrast to liberal feminism, postcolonial feminism recognises that gender inequality has interconnected economic, political and social dimensions in which power inequalities and discriminatory norms are embedded. It consequently seeks fundamentally to challenge and transform dominant patriarchal, racial and economic power structures, both in the public and private domain. A postcolonial feminist critique of the SDGs highlights that corporate interests have taken precedence over feminist critiques demanding systemic transformation. It is up to the South African government to recognise and enlarge women’s freedom and agency, and to initiate truly transformative local strategies that address the systemic drivers of gender injustice. Given that Government has affirmed that its unreservedly gender-blind NDP will inform South Africa’s engagement with the SDGs, it is highly likely that the country’s 30 million women will be left behind.

Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Frage inwiefern sich die Widersprüche der verschiedenen Bildungsverständnisse innerhalb der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit (EZA) auch in den Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) widerspiegeln. Denn Bildung wurde im Laufe der Jahre zu einem wichtigen Instrument und Ziel der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit. Dominierend ist dabei die Vorstellung, dass Bildung eine lineare, kontextunabhängige, entwicklungsfördernde Wirkung auf Entwicklung hat (vgl. Langthaler 2015a:34). Dadurch bekam Bildung für die EZA einen zentralen Stellenwert. So auch in den SDGs. Neben dem dominierenden gibt es noch eine Vielzahl weiterer Bildungsverständnisse. Denn es gibt im Kontext der EZA kein homogenes Verständnis von Bildung. In dieser Arbeit kristallisieren sich zwei konträre Pole dieses multidimensionalen Diskurses heraus: das dominierende, humankapitalistische sowie das alternative, humanistische Bildungsverständnis. Die qualitative Inhaltsanalyse geht der Frage nach, welche Merkmale der jeweiligen Bildungsverständnisse sich in jenen (Unter-) Zielen und Indikatoren der SDGs wiederfinden lassen, die sich dem Thema Bildung widmen. Durch die Analyse wird deutlich, dass sich das Bildungsverständnis der SDGs nicht eindeutig einem Pol zuordnen lässt. Doch es besteht die Tendenz, dass sich die Dominanz des humankapitalistischen Bildungsverständnisses auch in den SDGs widerspiegelt. Es lassen sich jedoch auch alternative, humanistische Elemente wiederfinden. Allerdings werden einst emanzipative, oppositionelle Konzepte zum Teil einer (neoliberalen) Neuinterpretation und Instrumentalisierung unterworfen. Der erhoffte große Paradigmenwechsel für die Entwicklungszusammenarbeit konnte durch die SDGs nicht erreicht werden.

This master thesis deals with the question to what extent the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reflect the contradictions of the different educational understandings within the Development Cooperation (DC). Over the years, education has become an important instrument and goal of the DC. Its dominant idea is that education has a linear, context-independent, development-promoting effect on development (cf. Langthaler 2015a: 34). For the DC and accordingly the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), education has thus become a central issue. Yet aside from the prevailing understanding of education within the DC, there are a multitude of other educational viewpoints. This is due to the fact that the context of DC does not imply a homogeneous understanding of education. In this work, two contrary poles of this multidimensional discourse emerge: the dominant, human capitalist and the alternative, humanistic understanding of education. The qualitative content analysis examines the question which characteristics of the respective educational understandings can be found in the (sub-) goals and indicators of the SDGs, dedicated to education. The analysis shows that the educational understanding of the SDGs cannot be clearly assigned to one pole. However there is a tendency that the human…

▼ Considering the global and national interests in improving maternal health as evident by Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) ,Ghana is still battling with maternal mortality despite several initiatives introduced in reversing the trend. The study, therefore, sought to assess maternal health in Ga South District and the strategies put in place to achieve the maternal health targets in the SDGs. The study used a qualitative research approach and a case study design. The techniques for the qualitative approach include focus group discussions for pregnant women and in-depth interviews for health personnel and traditional birth attendants in four selected health facilities in the district. Primary data was obtained from (57) respondents and analyzed thematically based on the objectives. Secondary data was obtained by reviewing the district‟s annual health report. The findings from the study indicate that maternal deaths have been increasing in the district despite several interventions introduced. The main causes are severe malaria haemorrhage, pregnancy- induced hypertension, abortions and anemia. The study found other challenges including financial constraints, illiteracy, weak staff strength, energy crises, poor attitudes of midwives, and poor infrastructure. New strategies introduced by the district to reduce maternal mortality include pregnancy school, focus antenatal, running 24-hours of service and the involvement of community nurses for follow-ups on clients. The study recommends continuous sensitization within the district aiming at educating pregnant women on the need to resort to antenatal services. Government should skew resources to enhance service delivery in the health service. Similarly, there should be consistent monitoring and evaluations to check the conditions of health centres. Executing programmes and policies must include a strong human resource base, future policies and programmes must consider required human resources before their implementation.

▼ Aligning with the beginning of a new sustainable development paradigm in 2000 and the introduction of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, the international community has developed more collaborative and innovative approaches for solving sustainable water development challenges. Unfortunately, most developed countries have not promoted sustainable development in least developed countries and have failed to produce effective and successful partnerships relating to SDG 6, centred on ensuring clean water and sanitation for all. Denmark and Sweden, however, are notable exceptions. Using the case studies of the Denmark-Uganda partnership and the Sweden-Mali partnership, in this thesis, I explore which sustainable water development partnership approaches and tools are most likely to help LDCs in Africa implement water accessibility and availability strategies, clean water and sanitation measures, and management (sustainable use) practices, according to the criteria set forth in SDG 6. Furthermore, I ask: Are partnerships between developed countries and LDCs which exhibit higher levels of participation amongst stakeholders, more likely to result in higher levels of water sustainability, as measured by the targets of SDG 6? Ultimately, I hypothesized that partnerships that exhibit higher levels of participation will result in higher levels of water sustainability, as measured by SDG 6 targets. This thesis provides an overview of partnerships as a particularly helpful approach to fostering sustainable water development. I then discuss the different approaches taken by Nordic countries in achieving successful sustainable water development in least developed African countries. Comparing the Denmark-Uganda and Sweden-Mali partnerships, I observe that partnerships focused on prioritizing the participation of stakeholders - ensuring the participation of relevant actors in decision-making, problem-solving, and policy-making - are the most useful in advancing the agenda of SDG 6. Understanding how different approaches in partnerships can contribute to successful sustainable water development can provide a framework for developed countries and the broader international community to engage in partnerships with least developed countries designed to provide sustainable water development and implement the larger SDG framework.

▼ The goals of this dissertation are twofold. The first is to advance the discipline of sustainability science through the application of systems-based tools (primarily system dynamics) and civil engineering principles. Sustainability science is fundamental to implementing effective strategies for progressing sustainable development and improving human well-being around the planet, but it is still not fully developed as a science and needs new methods and approaches due to the field’s inherent interdisciplinarity and complexity. Civil engineering as a foundation provides mathematical knowledge, computer modeling skills, and a wide breadth of technical understanding, but it lacks the societal, political, and economic transdisciplinary knowledge that sustainable development issues require and that the social sciences possess. Therefore, the second goal of this dissertation is to propose a new systems-based methodology that can analyze complex issues, usually addressed by social scientists, using analytical and engineering methods that are typically employed by technical scientists. This technique is called qualitative structural data analysis (QSDA) and is designed to take theories from the social sciences and, through a form of text analysis, use them to construct causal-loop diagrams and system dynamics models. Quantitative systems tools – cross-impact analysis, system dynamics modeling, and network analysis – can be used to further model the issues that have already been qualitatively analyzed using QSDA. Some issues are better suited to be analyzed qualitatively, some are more appropriate for quantitative tools, and others can be modeled through mixed-methods. With these quantitative tools, specifically system dynamics modeling, a new system archetype is introduced that can be applied to most, if not all, areas of sustainable development, including the Sustainable Development Goals, the water-energy-land-food (WELF) nexus, urbanization, hydropolitics, conflict, corruption, and natural resource governance. Three versions of the archetype are presented: a two-chambered and extended linear form, a three-chambered triangular form, and a four-chambered hierarchical form. The different versions can be used for modeling various social processes that are usually reserved for the social sciences and qualitative methods. The work presented in this thesis applies the QSDA technique and the new system archetypes to several issues of sustainable development. Advisors/Committee Members: Bernard Amadei, Amy Javernick-Will, Carlo Salvinelli, Lori Hunter, Mark Meaney.
