Ghana

Ghana treats culture not simply as heritage to be archived but as an economic, educational and diplomatic resource. Kente, music, craft and festivals connect tradition to jobs, tourism and design. The country holds a distinctive place in Pan-African history through independence under Kwame Nkrumah and programmes addressing the African diaspora. A young population means continuity depends less on demographic shortage and more on whether urbanisation and global media transform the link between younger generations and local traditions.
