Update from Ghana

This is a short update from the 13 NTNU-students currently staying in Ghana, and taking the course Atlantic History and Heritage at University of Education, Winneba.

We have been here for almost two of the total four weeks, and our stay has so far been packed with new knowledge and cultural encounters. With us is also 14 Ghanaian students taking the same course. The entire course is based on sharing knowledge and different perspectives, so we have been traveling and working together.

There are a few pictures attached to this update, and we hope that they give an insight in what we are experiencing here in Ghana.
