Government announces proposed Diaspora National Service at maiden Ghana Diaspora Students Forum

The Ghana Diaspora Students Forum is the first joint initiative involving NUGS chapters in Germany, the United Kingdom, China and Canada, with organisers hoping it will become a regular platform for connecting the Ghanaian student diaspora to national development.

The forum, organised by the National Union of Ghana Students (NUGS)-Germany in collaboration with NUGS-UK and NUGS-China under the theme "Pathways, Ecosystems and Diaspora as Development," brought together Ghanaian students, researchers and institutional partners from Europe, Asia and North America.

The government has announced plans to introduce a Diaspora National Service programme aimed at reconnecting young Ghanaians raised abroad with their homeland through a short-term cultural and national immersion initiative.
