TESTIMONIALS
I joined the Melton Foundation in 2016, when Ashesi was still a very new addition to the ecosystem. Since then, there has been change and growth in leaps and bounds within myself and the Foundation. To be here at this point in history, launching a Global Citizenship Hub in Accra that is going to foster deep collaboration locally and globally is a huge milestone.
