Community readiness to address unhealthy food and beverage consumption in Ghana: in-depth interview transcripts of local stakeholders

The Community Readiness Model (CRM) assessed the stage of readiness of communities within Accra and Ho to address the consumption of unhealthy foods and beverages. In-depth individual interviews were conducted in 2018 with 24 key informants from various sectors across the two cities.

The CRM survey consists of 36 open questions addressing five readiness dimensions: community knowledge of efforts; leadership; community climate; knowledge of the issue and resources. Data available: 24 qualitative interviews transcripts (about 20 pages each), anonymized manually after collection (transmitted upon agreement and regulatory compliance: refer to "Terms of Use" statement); quantitative scores using the CRM protocol; documentation: interview guide and informed consent form.
