Boosting Literacy Skills in Africa
Entrepreneurship to Disadvantage Youth
To prepare young people to understand and
interact within a culturally diverse and globally
interconnected world, World Partners for
Development has partnered with Global Nomads
Group, an international nonprofit organization
based in the U.S. to connect students in Ghana,
the U.S,and other far parts of the world through
video conferencing in educational programs
which include, global issues, health, community
development, environment, modern technology,
political systems, entrepreneurship, and other
nations cross-cultural communication skills.
Students from poor rural and urban schools in
Ghana and many African countries are enjoying
from such programs via the GIMPA LDC video
conference facility in Accra, Ghana.
This world-class educational program has also
opened many doors to most Ghana schools in
books and computer library projects, with other
schools around the world. learn more

What's New
As young people are finding it very difficult to get jobs
in their own rural communities, World Partners
for Development is working in a collaborative
program with a U.S. based nonprofit organization,
Making Cents International, to help the youth in
Ghana grow through new ideas that create economic
opportunities for their lives.
The purpose of this entrepreneurship education is to
prepare the youth to be active, self-sufficient, and
productive citizens who can contribute to t heir
community's social and economic development.
As part of this program, a youth leader is being
sponsored from Ghana to attend the 2009 Global
Youth Conference in Washington,DC, to be more
equipped as training of trainer (TOT) for other youth
enterprise programs in Ghana.
Youth are the future of their countries. Their
education is key to sustaining, improving health,
democracies, increasing per capita income and
conserving community environmental resources.
Currently, WPD is partnering with donors and
communities to support rural schools and
community library projects that bring people
together and provide them with learning
opportunities.
