My Name is Nana Jovaun Kwame. I Am From Milwaukee, Wisconsin In 2012 When I Was 25 Years Old, I Moved to Ghana, West Africa. I Used to Think That I Had "Accomplished" Many Dreams/Goals in My Life. But How Many of Them Have Actually Been MY OWN Dreams/Goals? Not Something That I Was Programmed to...

CENTRAL REPATRIATE COMPOUND #1
(As Yet Unnamed)

A GREAT MANY Thanks to My Brother-From-the-ALL-Mother and Brilliant Business Partner Mr. Isaac Koomson for All Architecture, Design and Even CGI Reproduction of the Concept. Mr. Koomson is Co-Founder and Chief Engineer of DreamCrafters Architecture and Engineering. We Have Built Many Things Together Since We Opened Our Doors at Our First Office in Tema, Ghana.

Here is a Brief Excerpt From an Overview on :

"That [Project] is to Address the Final Remaining Barriers to (Living Conditions/ Stability) By Building a Repatriation Compound for Those Who Would Otherwise Be Ready to Return If Not for Those Small Remaining Uncertainties. The Compound, Which We Have Already Taken the ACTION to Design, Will Consist of 100 Apartment Units and a Large Farm. 50 Local Ghanaian Families and 50 Families of Returning Diaspora Africans Will Live Side By Side as Neighbors and as Partners in the Community. The Idea is to Save/Raise the Money to Build This Compound Without Any Assistance From Banks and Therefore Be Able to Offer the Living Quarters for Free, 6 Months at a Time, on a Rotational Basis. During These Six Months, The Returning Diaspora Families Will Become Familiar With Local Customs, Foods, Language, Job Market, and People. They Will Work Together to Cultivate the Community Farm and Provide Excess Food to the Local Community. After Six Months They Will Have Had Enough Time and Experiences to Decide If Ghana is Right for Them. If So, They Will Then Move Out Into the Country on Their Own in an Area of Their Own Choosing, and If Not They Will Be Able to Return Home; in Either Case Leaving a Vacancy for the NEXT Diaspora Family Looking to Return. Eventually Others Can Repeat This Model and Before You Know It We Have Thousands of Families Repatriating on a Constant Basis. It All Started From a Thought and Now All the Mechanisms Are in Place to Make It REAL! It Has a Design, It Has a Business Plan, the Engineering Firm is in Place to Build It and It's a Firm I Have Ownership Of. Now It's Only a Matter of Time and Willing Repatriates and Contributors."
