The Land Use and Spatial Planning Authority (LUSPA), the Office of the Administrator of Stool Lands (OASL), the Lands Commission, and the Ghana Institute of Surveyors (GhIS) have all committed to creating synergies to advance the nation's land reform goal.


They acknowledged their crucial responsibilities, which should be well-knit to alleviate the numerous difficulties plaguing the land sector, at separate sessions in Accra that were focused on utilizing their experience to cleanse land management in the nation. The courtesy call was a part of efforts by the new administrators of GhIS to connect with quasi-government organizations in the land sector to combine their skills and fortify their relationships in order to fulfill their missions.



The Land Use and Spatial Planning Authority (LUSPA), a service delivery entity under the Ministry of Local Government, was the subject of the first point of inquiry. LUSPA is charged with ensuring the sustainable development of land and human settlements through a decentralized planning system, ensuring the wise use of land, and creating an environment that will enable district assemblies to better carry out the spatial planning and human settlement management functions.


Alhaji Sulemana Daud Mahama, President of the Ghana Institute of Surveyors (GhIS), who was in charge of a team of executives, said that the interaction was productive and that the two organizations would build on it to investigate potential contributions to land administration.


He pointed out that the Ghana Institute of Surveyors is concentrating on changing land management this year and needs partners like LUSPA to further that objective. Alhaji Dauada said that because the subject of land management is crucial and important to them, they will do all in their power to reshape the system.


The two organizations are bedfellows whose functions depend on one another, according to Mr. Kwadwo Yeboah, acting chief executive officer of the Land Use and Spatial Planning Agency, or LUSPA. He said that the conference was a chance to get the process of creating synergies to protect Ghana's land management under way. The two organizations vowed to continue working together to meet the land administration goals at the national level.


The executives of the Ghana Institute of Surveyors visited the administration of the Lands Commission in Accra as a courtesy. Former President of the GhIS and Executive Secretary of the Lands Commission, Mr. James Ebenezer Kobina Dadson, stated that the institute is essential to the growth of the country.


The Lands Commissions, he pointed out, are the GhIS's single greatest donor, thus it is up to them to create synergies to modernise the land administration sub-sector. According to the two groups, the meeting was productive and will have a good effect on how land issues grow.
