| dc.description.abstract | The ISELDA project sought to assess the nature and availability of socio economic land data in Ghana. The specific objectives of the study were to: identify key stakeholders in land and socio-economic land data, assess data availability and provide suggestions for improving socio-economic land data in Ghana. To achieve these objectives, we first conducted a desk review to identify what kind of data were available and their accessibility. We also identified and engaged with various stakeholders in land administration in Ghana. Seven (7) key stakeholders were identified. In terms of data availability, we found that, Ghana’s statistical service hosts a majority of the countries national level socio-economic data online and provides easy access to most of these datasets. The summary statistics presented focused mostly on agricultural land and showed some interesting variations across gender and location of the household in terms of land ownership and use. We recommend that government expand available socio-economic data to cover non-agricultural land ownership and use. Also, there is need to create a land help desk where socio-economic land data from all stakeholders can be managed for easy access. This will be helpful for policy decisions and implementations. | en_US |
