Birim North District is one of the thirty-three districts in
Eastern Region, Ghana.[2][3] Originally created as an ordinary district assembly in 1988, which was created from the former Birim District Council, until the southern part of the district was split off to create Akyemansa District on 29 February 2008; thus the remaining part has been retained as Birim North District. The district assembly is located in the southwest part of Eastern Region and has New Abirem
as its capital town.
Geography
