ABSTRACT
Provision of adequate housing is one of the major challenges faced by most African countries. In this chapter, housing policies and other housing issues in Ghana are discussed. The roles played by the different bodies such as the government and NGOs in the provision of housing is discussed. This is because in Ghana the ownership of affordable good-quality housing has been a problem. The chapter provides a historical overview of housing provision in Ghana. It attempts to systematically bring into focus the challenges of housing delivery by reviewing past and present housing schemes in Ghana.
