Koh-Ed Ghana Trip: End of the Program

Dear all,

Our final greetings from Ghana! Our Ghana trip has come to an end at last. Today, we will be taking an evening flight back to Paris and will arrive on Saturday.

Through this trip, all the Ghana members have learned so much in terms of teaching science, interacting with local students, and how to inspire others to solve everyday problems in their communities using science experiments. We had the honor of meeting authority figures like the regional director of education, traditional chiefs of different regions, and school principals. Overall, we had a very intense schedule, however, it was completely worth it and we have fulfilled our mission.

We believe that we have succeeded in starting a new partnership between the Ho International Exchange Program (HIEP) which allowed us to go to different schools and teach mainly science. This trip was a start of the journey to implementing hands on education in different parts of Ghana. We aim to bring back everything we have learned through this trip back to our school EJM and beyond and share it with others. This trip has inspired us for other future projects that revolve around mainly hands on science education that we plan on pursuing once we get back to Paris.

Thank you to everyone who has been supporting Koh-Ed in general. We are very grateful to those who have helped us prepare for this trip and to all of you who have been keeping track of our stay in Ghana. We hope these updates have somehow inspired you.

The Koh-Ed Ghana members sends their bests to you all. Thank you once again for following us through this journey that is a beginning to spreading hands on education worldwide. I hope everyone has an amazing summer.
