The researcher has conducted extensive work across multiple themes, focusing on compensation for land use issues, construction challenges such as defects and transport terminals, urban development in compound houses, property pricing, housing markets, hydropower displacements, mining-induced displacements, BIM integration, energy transition impacts, capital investment assessments, and house rating studies.
Department of Land Economy
This researcher has made significant contributions to the study of land rights, mining, urban agriculture, sustainable practices, community development, and social issues across Ghana's diverse contexts. Their work spans themes such as land ownership dynamics in traditional areas, compensation mechanisms for land use deprivation, regulations affecting mining industries, impacts of urban agriculture on land tenures, and policy innovations in facilities management. The researcher focuses on understanding how youth access to agricultural land influences agricultural productivity, the challenges faced by communities in accessing land resources, and the role of compensation in addressing land use deprivation. Their findings highlight the complex interplay between land rights, economic interests, and social dynamics within Ghana's socio-political landscape, particularly in relation to mining, urban agriculture, and facility management.
Department of Land Economy
The researcher explores how housing finance and development systems function across African contexts, examining financing structures, policy issues, legal constraints, systemic inefficiencies, urban opportunities, transportation improvements, work capital management, facilities design, economic factors in other regions, and sustainable practices.
Department of Land Economy
This researcher has conducted extensive work in land administration, governance, and environmental sustainability across multiple domains, from African land reforms to urban development challenges. Their research focuses on participatory land management, land consolidation strategies, and the role of technology in securing land rights and ecosystems. Through case studies of Ghana’s Bui Dam project and other large-scale infrastructure projects, they have explored the complexities of land use, cadastres, and their social impact. In domains like water resources management, the researcher has integrated innovative technologies such as remote sensing and blockchain into land administration processes. Their work also delves into the intersection of Hermeneutics with narrative identity in governance, offering a unique approach to understanding and preserving land rights.
