The "Working in Ghana" Project

Welcome

Woman with textiles

From traditional farmer to member of parliament, men and women from the West African country of Ghana tell what they do in their jobs, and what their work means to them and their families.

Expatriates from several continents, including a development agency officer, Peace Corps volunteer, and ethnomusicologist also relate their stories of living and working in Ghana.

The full texts of more than 50 work narratives are available at this site.
