Ghana NRW University Alliance
The Ghana NRW University Alliance is a consortium of eight leading universities and universities of applied sciences from the federal German state of North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). Building on the long-standing partnership between Ghana and NRW, the alliance's mission is to foster academic exchange, research collaboration, and knowledge transfer across a wide range of disciplines between higher education institutions in Ghana and NRW.
By connecting students, researchers, and university staff from Ghana and NRW, the alliance aims at addressing global challenges through joint and mutually beneficial research projects, workshops, and educational programs. This way, the initiative strengthens ties between Ghana and NRW, promoting innovation, cultural understanding, and sustainable development through higher education and scientific cooperation.
The Ghana NRW University Alliance runs a liaison office in Accra, which serves as a central point of contact for researchers, staff, and students from both regions, providing support, coordination, and opportunities for collaboration.
