Yesterday marked the initiation of the 4-day Accra Reparations Conference, commencing with an official banquet hosted at the Jubilee House. Themed "Building a United Front to Advance the Cause of Justice and the Payment of Reparations to Africans," this extensive gathering brings together Heads of State and Governments from Africa and the Diaspora, alongside representatives from academia, legal experts, and civil society organizations.

The conference serves as a pivotal milestone in addressing historical injustices, spanning the eras of slave trade, segregation, colonialism, apartheid, neo-colonialism, and neo-liberalism. It aims to facilitate meaningful dialogue, knowledge exchange, and the formulation of actionable strategies among diverse stakeholders.

The significance of this gathering lies in its role as a crucial step toward redressing historical grievances and fostering unity among nations dedicated to rectifying past injustices. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ญ

I met with the owner of Rap Snacks, James Lindsay, in Miami to explore business opportunities in Africa, focusing on making Ghana their main manufacturing hub for the African market. In December, the owner will introduce Rap Snacks to market, possibly featuring Ghanaian artists on the packaging, with a primary goal of creating job opportunities for Ghana's youth. We're incredibly excited about this endeavor and its potential to benefit both Rap Snacks and Ghana's young workforce.

The Board of Airline Representatives, Ghana, chaired by Eloina Baddoo, recently met with the Director, Akwasi Awua Ababio, and myself at the Diaspora Affairs Office of the President, Ghana to address challenges faced by Diaspora travelers to and from Ghana. These challenges include cost concerns, new Caribbean routes, flight availability, emergency charter options, and more.

Notable representatives from airlines like Delta, United, Air France, Egypt Air, Emirates, Qatar Airways, Kenya Airways, South Africa Airlines, AWA, and others attended the meeting. It's promising to witness a significant increase in visitors from African nations and Diasporans from North & South America, the Caribbean, and Europe, surpassing pre-Covid levels. We'll share insights into airline and traveler costs in future engagements with the Diaspora community to enhance passenger experiences when traveling to Ghana.

Discussions also explored potential new routes connecting the Caribbean and Ghana, as well as expanding routes in North American and European cities. This is just the beginning of our discussions, and we encourage Diaspora members to explore upcoming programs, especially in December, and take advantage of airline packages for their trips to Ghana. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ญ โœˆ๏ธ

The Business Conference hosted by the Ghanaian-Canadian Chamber of Commerce was a fantastic opportunity to engage with the diaspora community in Toronto. During our meeting, I discussed various activities of the Diaspora Affairs Office, including the recently passed Narcotics Control Commission Amendment Bill 2023 in Parliament and the Diaspora Engagement Policy, which was presented to cabinet lead by Minister for Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration, Honourable Shirley Ayorkor Botchwey, supported by the Diaspora Affairs Office.

I highlighted the significance of obtaining a Ghana Card, which will soon become the primary form of ID and eventually replace the need for a visa when traveling to Ghana from abroad. I encouraged the community members to visit our Office whenever they are in Ghana, assuring them of support in both government and private sectors.

Furthermore, I provided an update on the ongoing efforts by the Electoral Commission to enable Ghanaians in the Diaspora to exercise their voting rights. It was a fruitful and informative session, and I am grateful for the engagement with the Diaspora community in Toronto. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ

Essence Festival in NOLA surpassed expectations, offering a remarkable experience. Speaking on a panel with brilliant individuals, I emphasized the potential to strengthen the relationship between New Orleans and Ghana. The shared heritage and cultural ties between these places create a tapestry of unity.

I highlighted the importance of recognizing the historical significance of the African diaspora and the transformative power of reconnecting with ancestral roots. By fostering partnerships between NOLA and Ghana, we have the chance to create meaningful and sustainable platforms for educational exchanges, artistic collaborations, and business ventures that can uplift both communities.

Furthermore, I explored the prospects of economic expansion and collaborative endeavours, highlighting NOLA as a gateway for introducing Ghanaian culture to a wider audience.

Beyond the panel, Essence Fest provided a platform for connections to flourish. As I navigated through the vibrant exhibits and engaged in conversations with attendees, I witnessed firsthand the genuine interest and excitement that people had in discovering more about the cultural treasures of Ghana.

I'm thankful to Essence Fest for the invitation to speak about my true passion, which has enabled me to establish more profound connections.
