Research Focus: Water use types and qualities in the Greater Accra Metropolitan Area (GAMA)

This research investigates the institutional and policy framework of water and sanitation in GAMA; the spatial variation of water use types across different socio-economic neighbourhoods and water quality based on water use types with emphasis also on organic contaminants and heavy metals. This research is part of a multi-national project dubbed “Pathways to Equitable Health Cities” with the Water and Sanitation Group.
