Major cities in Ghana particularly Accra and Kumasi have had challenges in dealing with growing urbanisation and the implementation of the national urban renewal programmes (NURP) and policies. The study reviews Ghana's urban renewal policy and further outlines strategies for adoption to ensure successful implementation of urban renewal and sustainable development practice in Ghana. The study adopted the desk survey approach where extant literature from published database was reviewed. The study revealed six (6) strategies to promote the implementation of urban renewal and sustainable development practice in Ghana. The study advocates for the establishment and decentralisation of the Ghana urban renewal authority (GURA) to develop and implement the national urban renewal policy and to address specific urban needs of low dense but fast-growing cities across the country.
