Abstract
ABSTRACT Using questionnaire surveys and drawing on the co-cultural theory, this study examines the spatial, demographic, and socioeconomic factors influencing the awareness of land use and forest reserve regulations among forest fringe communities in the Tano-Offin forest reserve in Ghana. The study finds that high-income community members are significantly more likely to be aware of the regulations. Additionally, women and migrants are significantly less likely to be aware of the regulations. These results suggest that there is a need to rethink awareness creation strategies and make relentless efforts to involve the excluded and the marginalized, especially women, in the information-sharing streams..
