A union built by tenants, for tenants.
There are an estimated 15 million private renters in Ghana, one in every two people in the country. We exist to turn that number into a single, organized voice on housing.
Why we exist
Renting is how one in every two Ghanaians lives, yet most tenants face their landlords alone. Without information, advice, or anyone in their corner, it is easy for rights to be ignored.
We inform tenants of their rights, negotiate on their behalf, and press government for fair housing policy, because a tenant backed by a union has real standing.

Strategic aims
Four aims that guide every campaign, workshop, and policy submission we take on. See the full operational plan →
- 1
Establish community-based tenants' associations across the country.
- 2
Develop and implement a national education program so landlords and tenants both know their rights and responsibilities under the law.

Advocate for viable Rent Control laws and policies that improve tenants' livelihoods in Ghana.
