Individual freedom is at the heart of the Danquah Institute’s philosophy, which takes as its basis the works and beliefs of Dr J.B. Danquah, who saw it as his duty "to liberate the energies of the people for the growth of a property-owning democracy in this land, with right to life, freedom and justice, as the principles to which the Government and laws of the land should be dedicated in order specifically to enrich life, property and liberty of each and every citizen."
The Danquah Institute adheres to the doctrine that the duty of the state is to guarantee to individuals substantive freedoms to make them active agents in their own individual development, and that by so doing we will achieve real and lasting national development for our people.
We therefore believe that supporting, promoting and protecting a competitive multi-party democracy in which freedoms flourish is vital for our development.

"Our mission is to make a courageous, imaginative and constructive contribution to nation-building and development, with the purpose of enhancing the life of every individual citizen" - J.B Danquah

Policy shifted from stimulating growth to controlling speculative demand for housing, as well as increasing the supply of affordable housing.

Despite the tensions in implementation, central government commitment to the policy turn appears strong, and it is likely it will be sustained.
