Dr. Vannetta R. Perry, International Educational Consultant, can offer your group custom experience in Ghana, West Africa.  Participants will reside in a rural West African village and take excursions to breathtaking waterfalls, slave trading castles, a wild game park, and a women's fishing cooperative on the Ghanaian coast.  You will learn about women's roles in traditional kente cloth weaving, drum making, batik dying, and other indigenous arts and crafts as well as rural subsistence farming and fishing enterprises.  You will live with a host family in Wusuta, Volta Region, Ghana and experience traditional West African foods, music, crafts, and livelihood. 

The cost is $1500 (includes meals, two weeks lodging, ground transportation for group travel, traditional African dance and drumming lessons, and entry fee into cultural and natural sites).  Participants are responsible for air fare to Accra, Ghana, international travel insurance, passport and visa, beverages including water (safe bottled water is readily available), passport and visa, inoculations and medications, personal items and gifts. 

Obtaining two university graduate credit-hours is an available option (additional cost).
