WORLD MERIT IN GHANA

On 28th June 2015 at the University of Cape Coast was the Launch of #WorldMeritGhana. The event introduced World Merit to Ghana hosted by the World Merit Country Office Representative from Ghana and the UK. The event brought together 12 participants of the Awareness Through Dance program (Megan's and students of Cape Coast University in a collaboration event to launch World Merit Ghana. The event was facilitated by Awareness Through Dance and was led by the group through a series of exercises to get to know each other, understand the different cultures, encourage communication and trust. The event was then moved on to a conversation around global challenges which include: Politics, Economy, Technology, Social and Environmental. The group discussed collectively the challenges we currently face both in country and globally, we discussed the reasons and share with each other an issue that is particularly important to them which they all pledge to commit themselves to solve those challenges in their various countries and communities. The group was split into groups depending on their passions and work together towards the end of the event to discuss social actions and possible small ways they can move forwards and contribute in some way to making the world a better place.
