Turning Challenges into Opportunities: The Ashesi Way
Education is the harbinger of hope for communities facing impossible challenges. While Africa's image is often equated with poverty and conflict, the continent has the potential for rapid development. Ashesi University exemplifies this potential with a model focused on equipping students with leadership development, firm ethical foundations and entrepreneurial thinking. In doing so, Ashesi demonstrates that from overwhelming challenges come the greatest opportunities.
