Rapid population growth and increasing urbanization, have made shelter one of the most critical challenges currently facing the country. Increasing overcrowding, declining quality of housing and access to housing services characterize much of the housing stock in Ghana.

In spite of the gravity of the challenges and notwithstanding the fact that these issues have confronted the country for a long time, attempts at resolving them have not been clear and concise.

In the absence of a policy, the country does not gain from the inherent economic benefits that can be leveraged from the housing sector in terms of employment, fixed capital and financial deepening.

Government, in this regard has set out this new policy on the basis of its understanding of the "enabling framework" whereby the state will play a less direct role in the housing sector in the future and encourage private sector developers, cooperative groups and others actors to take leadership in the delivery with the state facilitating equitable production and allocation.

The National Housing Policy was however launched on the 27th of March, 2015.
