Activist-Developers in Ghana
My primary research project examines technology development in contemporary West Africa. Ghana has been a nation transformed in recent decades by tech practices linking homeland and diaspora, and by the growth of oil. Yet, this path of development has been both progressive and regressive. My book project and ongoing
research documents Ghana's community of "activst-developers" and Ghana's digital diaspora, as they re-shape the social imaginary around Africa in the 21st century. Check back here for published excerpts from my project
Re-Assembling Ghana.
