This trip is structured around key thematic pillars, offering a coherent and profound narrative throughout our travels.

• Confronting History and Honoring Resilience: Walk through the Cape Coast and Elmina Castles and pause for reflection at the “Last Bath” slave river. This essential historical context lays the foundation for understanding the resilience of the cultures we will encounter.
• Exploring the Roots of Vodun: Travel to the seminal sites of Ouidah and Glidji to gain an accurate, firsthand perspective on Vodun (Voodoo) in its birthplace. Learn from local guides to demystify this widely misunderstood world religion and understand its role as a foundational cultural tradition.
• Unlocking Secrets of Traditional Healing: Engage with the holistic wellness practices of the region. Meet with herbalists and healers in Ghana and Benin, visit a traditional apothecary market, and gain insight from a special lecture on herbalism at a leading Ghanaian university.
• Stepping into Living History and Culture: Witness an unbroken chain of heritage in places like the stilt village of Ganvie and the Royal Palaces of Abomey. The journey begins with an immersive welcome in Accra, including opportunities for custom-made garments and connecting with contemporary African creativity.

• Connecting through Community and Ceremony: Participate in cultural workshops and be a respectful observer of local ceremonies, connecting the themes of our journey into a real-world context.
