Educational Heritage Program
You Are Welcome
Mia Woezor (Mee-yah Way-Zorh): Ewe-English translation: “You are welcome”
Mia Woezor is an educational heritage program whose mission is to provide direct exposure to the African continent and its communities. The Mia Woezor experience is carefully curated by children of both the continent and of the Diaspora to open an enriching and memorable chapter in the lives of its participants.
We invite you to learn about West African history, West African culture, and the West African state on a journey that only begins on the continent of Africa.
