Experience you can count on! ProWorld Ghana began operations in historic Cape Coast, Ghana in 2010 and recently opened a second location in Ghana’s scenic Volta Region. ProWorld Ghana is part of the ProWorld legacy first established in Peru in 1998 which grew to over 13 ProWorld country programs. Building off the successful ProWorld model, AOH launched Discover-Togo bringing the concept of citizen diplomacy to Ghana’s eastern neighbor. Together, ProWorld Ghana and Discover-Togo form AOH Global Programs, our unique offer for those seeking to serve, to learn, to develop professionally and to acquire cross-cultural competence.

It's simple:
Our values distinguish an AOH Global Program from others. We value ethics, diversity and inclusion. We engage in critical reflection and challenge our participants to approach their work through social and historical contexts. We recognize the career boosting importance of global acumen and advocate for increased diversity in study abroad recruitment from our university partners; as well as promote diversity in our marketing and outreach. We live and work in West Africa, and include local partner input in our decision making process. Through these values global participants and African partners support each other to fulfill their highest potential.
AOH Global Program locations provide participants the opportunity to work in both urban and rural settings. ProWorld Ghana sites include Cape Coast, the Central Region, and Keta in the Volta Region. Discover-Togo sites are in Lomé, Togo’s Capital and in Blitta, a small farming community.

Discover-Togo placed me in Blitta’s Regional District Hospital working eight hours a day, five days a week, for three months. The hospital was amazing; I have never learned so much in my life. After the first few weeks of the staff feeling me out, they threw me into the work. I am not saying everywhere or everyone will have the same opportunity as me but I was helping deliver babies, putting in IV’s, testing for HIV and malaria, drawing blood, and performing injections. To say I was overwhelmed would be underplaying, but I was also on a high. DT allowed me to figure out what my strengths and weakness are because of the work I was performing. I truly found myself amongst all the tribulations of language barriers, making relationships, and earning the trust of others.
After I have been to Ghana for 2 weeks, I realised that all the bad things I've heard about Africa are not true. Peaple are really nice and I really appreciate the simplicity of life here.

I choose Africa Our Home's global program ProWorld for our intership in Ghana because Africa Our Home's staff gets it.
