Ghana’s urban transformation has been momentous, but it is not unique; a similar
process has characterized other countries at similar levels of development. Ghana’s
key challenge now is to ensure that urbanization continues to complement growth
through improvements in productivity and inclusion, rather than detracting from these
goals. Many rising problems are related to efficiency and inclusion. These include slums, lack of basic services, underdeveloped manufacturing, and insufficient transport
infrastructure.
