INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH PROJECTS
ISSER's research outputs are generally expected to be driven by the observed development problems and needs of Ghana and Africa. Research undertaken by ISSER is usually in response to the direct demands of government and other stakeholders for information and strategies for improving the well-being of people. At the same time, research by ISSER seeks to maintain a focus on the academic purpose of the Institute by adding to existing knowledge about society and development.

A good number of projects undertaken in 2005/06 year were carried over from the previous year. A number of new projects or initiatives were also started. This report looks at on-going research projects, the staffing situation and on-going programmes at the Institute.

The main research projects at the Institute presently are:
