So after decades of housing programmes and sod-cuttings, the problems don't seem to have been fixed.Before we break down what was said at the National Conference on Housing Finance (7–8 October 2026), we step back. How big is the housing deficit really? Is Ghana short of houses, short of affordable houses, or short of housing finance? What does "affordable" even mean, and for whom?
