Our teammate Suza, from Global New Generation Berlin, has set out on the 25th of October 2019 to support GNG Ghana. The desk is exchanged for farmland and a big land for permaculture. Suza, our photographe and media design left about 27 days ago on the road to Ghana. And why she`s still not arrived, is because she decided to travel by car. Her VW Golf 4, construction year 1998. She is protected by the United Nations Association Ghana (UNA Ghana), which gives her free escort across all borders. After all, when Suza arrives, the journey continues there. She will travel all over Ghana to promote peaceful elections in Ghana in 2020.
As part of activities, the team will be visiting then:
- The President of The republic of Ghana.
- The formal President Jerry John Rawlings.
- The formal President John Kuffuo.
- Speaker of Parliament of Ghana.
- The Chief Justice of the Judiciary.
- The electoral commissioner.
- Interior Minister and the Security heads of Ghana.
- Laying of wreath at Dr. Kwame Nkrumah memorial museum.
- Laying of wreath at the Professor Evans Atta Mills park.
Phase two
Phase two of the program is to visit all 16 regional capitals of Ghana and preach PEACE.
The car will drive 9 countries until they reaches Ghana. She has allready passed Germany, France, Spain, Morocco, Mauritania, Senegal and Gambia.
The trip goes further through Guinee and Ivory Coast, then to Ghana. The pleasure of adventure and the desire to meet all our global friends is the motivation. Our Global New Generation Berlin (GNGBerlin) team are fully behind her, and also our partners United Nations Association Ghana (UNA Ghana) gives her their safe passage. She will meet partners and exchange ideas, expand our networks and make more friendships.
In Morocco, there was a warm welcome from the German Business Center (GBC), a tour through Morocco whit locals and many great contacts for the further journey. There were small cultural difficulties, because she didn´t know what hospitality meant in Morocco. In the North, it is normal that the guest pays, while in the south, it is an insult unless you are invited as a guest.She had to promisse that from now on she wouldn´t do this again and just accept the gift.
The German Business Center in Morocco has passed Suza to Daklar, just at the border of Mauritania. She was taken from a company and was able to obtain an overview of locals trade and markets. At the end, our learned photographer could still give something back and tanked them whit a photo shoot.
The adventure border was passed through the infinite desert, and 5 km off-road was definitely a challenge. Fortunately the VW Golf 4 made it. The journey was rewarded whit new friends in Mauritania.
It went to Senegal, where she was welcomed in various regions and hospitable families and could make further contacts.
We continue to monitor her journey ( In the name of love) and wish good luck and success dear Suza.
I `ll write to You in the next few days her journey.
