Design Ghana is a non-profit initiative founded in 2017 by educators, researchers, and design advocates. Our goal is to embed systems thinking and design practice into Ghana’s educational and civic landscape. We believe that great design isn’t just about aesthetics — it’s about solving real problems for real people.
