Strenthen Teaching and Research Capacity
AAN strengthens research capacity through three embedded PhD studies and two Postdocs closely coordinated with senior staff from Ghana and Denmark.
The Access and Authority Nexus in Farmer-Herder Conflicts (AAN) Project investigates the dynamic processes of formation and erosion of access, identities, and authority in spatial and historical perspectives. Through a theoretical lens guided by political ecology, and in particular the concepts of frontiers and territorialization, it understands the conflict as a dynamic process whereby people seek access and try to legitimize their claims as property.

The project will offer one international PhD course on frontiers and territorialisation; 12 manuscripts for peer reviewed journals; one panel on farmer-herder conflicts in a major international research conference; case description/documentation to be used in MSc learning activities at the Ghanaian and Danish universities; and eight MSc/MPhil theses
AAN will organise 10 district and two national levels forum meetings; three policy briefs; a video on farmer-herder conflicts; and one national science and policy workshop at the end of the project to share and discuss research findings and further their application.
