The Institute of Statistical Social and Economic Research (ISSER) at the University of Ghana is undertaking a new research initiative, The Retail Finance Distribution (ReFinD) Research Initiative. The initiative will focus on deepening digital financial inclusion, and how to improve women’s access to financial services in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the initiative aims to deepen digital financial inclusion among the vulnerable and excluded: women, poor households, SMEs and other retail businesses.
The main focus and scope of the Western Africa node of ACEIR is to undertake key studies on inequality in Ghana. The research entails conducting rigorous analyses of the nature, patterns and dynamics of inequality and poverty in Ghana using existing census and panel survey data.
The Ghana Statistical Service, the Bank of Ghana, Universities, and other Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) collect data on various issues in Ghana, including on food systems and climate change. Efforts have been made by the Ghana Statistical Service to create central repositories where data are stored for easy access and use by researchers, students and policymakers. Examples include the (i) National Data Archive, and (ii) the Ghana Open Data Initiative.
