Over the past 10 years I have had training, teaching and research experiences in geography, and urban and regional planning both in Ghana and UK. This upbringing and orientation has shaped my thoughts and academic intellects to be well abreast with issues covering areas such as town planning, land-use planning, landscape ecology, urban governance, informal settlements, environmental sustainability, rural and urban livelihoods, and environmental management.
