BarCamp Accra 2013 is a free networking forum on Monday, December 23, 2013 at the new World Bank Office in Accra. The theme is “Exercising ethics to engineer excellence”. This Barcamp will be the 28th organized by the GhanaThink Foundation as it builds a network of young change makers, doers and entrepreneurs in Ghana.

Corruption has been a big theme in Ghana this year, and a lot of us have read and listened to media reports in anger and disappointment. After the initial reactions fade away, we realize that attitudes of corruption and dishonesty   are deeply entrenched in our society and we wonder what we can do about it as ordinary Ghanaians.

At Barcamp Accra, we intend to discuss, in interactive sessions,  issues of ethics, corruption and most importantly, how we can achieve excellence without being unethical. There will also be the popular speed mentoring sessions with many inspirational people. Some of our confirmed resource personnel include Shamima Muslim, Nhyira Addo, Bernard Avle (CITI FM), Kwame Gyan (Airtel), Kinna Likimani (Ghana Decides), Gloria Buckman (Plan It Ghana), Joseph Hudson (Tigo), Kimathi Kuenyehia (Top Lawyer), Nana Amoah (Google), Hannah Acquah (Acumen Fund), Valerie Labi (Clean Team Ghana), Eugene Akoto-Bamfo (Osramba), Eric Osiakwan (AngelAfrica), Michael Ocansey (Kuzima.com), etc. We'll cap off the day with breakout sessions.


Come network, learn and share with some of the brightest and best youth in Ghana. It's a free event with free breakfast and lunch from 8am to 5pm. Register today at http://bit.ly/bcaccra13. You can also register by sending "Barcamp Accra + Your Name + Your Email Address" to 1945 on all networks. This event is sponsored by GhanaThink Foundation, Google, World Bank, DKT International, Gold Coast Clothing, Nandimobile, etc. Media partners are Spy Ghana, Ghana News Agency and CITI FM.
