Global Citizen Journey Ghana Project Alums Form "Ghana Together"

As Global Citizen Journey travels to other countries on other Journeys, we North American GCJ Ghana Project alums are staying in Ghana to focus exclusively on our work there. To support our work, we have formed a tax-exempt non-profit called "Ghana Together." We of Ghana Together are grateful to Global Citizen Journey for its vision, teachings, and for initiating our connection with our partners in Axim. We are building our new organization's future on the conceptual underpinnings we received from GCJ about interpersonal understanding across cultures, how to be “global citizens,” and how to use group facilitation processes to develop close relationships with our Ghanaian friends and draw out the power of the Axim community.

All of us who have at some time participated as delegates on a GCJ Journey, regardless of the country of destination, feel a sense of family and shared heritage. We encourage others to follow our footsteps. Join a Journey or support someone else to do so, and you will never regret it.

We invite you to read about Global Citizen Journey and specifically about our Ghana Journey during 2006-2007. The blog you are now reading is an accumulation of thoughts and events during and after our GCJ Journey to Axim, Ghana. It is an informal history of our activities, which will be updated in the new Ghana Together blog.
