Michael Danquah and Williams Ohemeng of GIMPA, with Bazoumana Ouattara and Alfred Barimah, examined how climate variability affects labour productivity across municipalities in the Accra city region, combining enterprise survey data, sub-city climate data and interviews with firms and city authorities. Rainfall, a major source of vulnerability in the city, significantly reduces labour productivity.
