A German-Ghanaian youth exchange focused on climate action has wrapped up after bringing together students and environmental advocates to explore sustainability initiatives and policy frameworks. The Diaspora Climate Bridges Program, organized by Nasco Feeding Minds and VKII Ruhrbezirk e.V., featured workshops and institutional visits to entities including the Ghana Climate Innovation Center, the German Embassy, and the Ghana Atomic Energy Commission.

Participants received presentations on carbon markets, renewable energy transitions, and climate justice while examining projects shaping environmental resilience in Ghana. Cedric Dzelu, representing the Ministry of Climate Change and Sustainability, emphasized the widespread economic impact of environmental shifts and the value of international partnerships. The GIZ team outlined Ghana's energy landscape through the Sustainable Energy for Climate Change program.

Kumasi Metropolitan Assembly Mayor Richard Ofori Agyemang Boadi briefed attendees on collaboration between his city and Dortmund on urban development projects. Selected Ghanaian participants will travel to Germany for the second phase of the exchange.
