With the new forces from globalization, this article seeks to compare the early factors that led to the partition and colonization of Africa. With the new forces fast spreading across Africa, o e can only ask a simple question; Is it a new scramble for Africa?

In this position paper, I will examine the prevalence and causes of child labour in Ghana, the impacts on children's development and well-being, and the policies and interventions that are needed to address this issue. As an advocate for children's rights and development and a researcher in the field of child development, my goal is to raise awareness about this issue and propose solutions that can make a real difference in the lives of Ghanaian children.

This paper presents the research results on this subject with two types of infrared emitters-ring and spotlight. Obtained results are in favour of the ring emitter-in case of spotlight there is a risk of unwanted artifacts. Periodical determination of microbolometers' gain values in thermal camera enables verification that these remain unchanged. In case of detection that gain values changed, it is possible to compensate for observed differences.

There remains contention about the effectiveness of foreign aid on development. This paper sought to assess foreign aid to Ghana during Corona Virus Pandemic. It found that foreign aid has a positive impact on development, especially during the period under review.
