Ghana, together with Cameroon, was the first country in which WIDU supported small businesses together with the Diaspora. Since the successful piloting in November 2019, hundreds of entrepreneurs from all over the country have benefited from professional business coaching and funding through the diaspora's investements and our available grants.

Together with the coaching organization Thinking Minds Ghana, we work to support sustainable and profitable small businesses.
