Sunyani West District

Sunyani West District is one of the twelve districts in Bono Region, Ghana. Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Sunyani District on 10 March 1989; until the northwest part of the district was split off to create Sunyani West District on 1 November 2007 (effectively 29 February 2008); thus the remaining part has been retained as Sunyani District (which it was later upgraded to municipal district assembly status and has been renamed as Sunyani Municipal District on that same year). The district assembly is located in the western part of Bono Region and has Odumase as its capital town.

Tertiary institution
Sunyani West is notable in Bono Region for hosting the first University of the region. The Catholic University of Ghana, Fiapre attracts students from all the country which transforms Fiapre in the past ten years. Fiapre is now mainly occupied by the elite group because of the students in both Catholic University College and University of Energy and Natural Resources. Even though the University of Energy and Natural Resources is not officially declared to be in Sunyani West, by the geographic location it is part of the district with the main campus planned to be situated at Nsoatre also in the Sunyani West.

Sunyani West has four public Senior High Schools which serves students within the Bono Region and beyond. The renowned Notre Dame Girls is one of the preferred choice for girls in Ghana.
