About the programme
How do West Africa and Ghana differ from other parts of Africa, and the world, in terms of development? How will the population growth in the region change society? People who rely on agriculture risk having their livelihoods destroyed by the climate changes that are already underway, while the country relies on growth and progress as a result of a breakthrough in oil exploration two decades ago. These are highly relevant environments for critical exploration of the many exciting issues the field encompasses.
