The Expansion of Affordable Housing in Accra, Ghana: Implications for Arable Land and Sustainable Development
Abstract
The expansion of affordable housing in Accra, Ghana, has become imperative due to rapid urbanization and a growing population. However, this development often comes at the cost of arable land, posing challenges for food security and sustainable development. This paper examines the implications of affordable housing projects on arable land, explores sustainable solutions, and presents case studies illustrating the tension between urban development and agricultural preservation. Recommendations are offered for balancing housing needs with environmental sustainability and food security.
