Washington, D.C.โJanuary 7, 2026โPrince Anthony Bart-Appiah, a Ghanaian royal, cultural steward, and advocate for education and long-term development, will travel to the United States this January 9-17 for a series of high-level meetings and public engagements focused on Africaโs role in shaping a shared global future.
Prince Bart-Appiahโs visit comes amid growing global reflection on history, responsibility, and the systems shaping the next generation. The Prince describes the journey not as a ceremonial visit but as a bridge-building missionโconnecting Africa, the African diaspora, and global partners through dialogue grounded in education, culture, and mutual responsibility.
During his time in the United States, Prince Bart-Appiah will meet with policymakers, educators, faith leaders, students, and members of the African diaspora. He is scheduled to speak at universities, churches, and civic forums, addressing topics including Africaโs future, the moral and economic imperative of investing in education, and the importance of global partnerships grounded in dignity and shared purpose.
โAs a Ghanaian royal and cultural steward, my work centers on education, heritage, and sustainable development,โ said Prince Bart-Appiah. โWhen people understand where they come from, they begin to imagine where they can go and what they owe others along the way.โ
Through initiatives that expand access to quality education, strengthen institutions, and reconnect the African diaspora with the continent, Prince Bart-Appiah has worked to challenge outdated narratives about Africa and to promote a vision of partnership rather than dependency.
โAfrica is not a problem to be solved; it is a partner to be engaged,โ he emphasized. โGhana is not merely a destination of heritageโit is a living, evolving nation with something essential to contribute to the global future.โ
Prince Bart-Appiah is available for speaking engagements during his U.S. visit. The Prince welcomes invitations to deliver lectures, keynote addresses, faith-based discussions, academic forums, and community dialogues.
This visit is intended as an open invitation to rethink global responsibility, reconnect with shared histories, and help build systems that honor human dignity across borders.
