Ghana

Travel in Ghana highlights the two contrasting sides of modern Africa; the huge wealth of the few and the endemic poverty of the majority. Education plays an important role in Ghana, but in many areas teachers are in short supply so the opportunities for teaching English in Ghana are many and varied.

Volunteering in Ghana is increasingly important as the country attempts to kick-start development through education. International volunteers are needed to help out at schools and community projects across the country, to give young people the language skills that will help them and their communities to move forward and attain a healthier and happier standard of living. Take the first step to becoming a volunteer in Ghana here.

If you’re planning on volunteering in Ghana or spending part of your gap year in Ghana supporting volunteer placements, you’re in the right place. We’ve been working with volunteer projects across the country and have years of experience in helping people plan travel in Ghana.
