HCC is a young institute of higher learning, at the heart of which lies entrepreneurship, ethics and philanthropy and global competence.
Can you feel it too? The Impact Week spirit took over during our Coach Camp at the University of Ghana. The Coach Camp aims to improve the coaching as well as the problem-solving and leadership capabilities of every Junior Coach. And we are happy to witness the plan is working out! You can literary feel how much our international Junior Coaches have developed already – not only in terms of their professional skills but on a personal level.
From today on the freshly trained Junior Coaches are goi
During the last two days we have conducted the first Design Thinking Bootcamp on-site here in Ghana. We first tested this prototype during the Impact Week Rwanda, 2018.

In only a few days, Impact Week will be landing in Ghana for the first time — We can literally already hear the Kpanlogo Drums! The preparations are at full speed as the Lead Organizers, Senior and Junior Coaches get ready to embark in this journey.
Team Ghana has kicked off the program 🥳
In our Design Thinking Bootcamp, we provide our Junior Coaches with a first awareness training of the creative approach and mindset. But we especially want to make sure that the team grows together and builds a good basis for the intercultural on-site experience. @ Restaurant Crasy Moose
