About Year of Return

The Year of Return, Ghana 2019 is an initiative of the government of Ghana that is intended to encourage African diasporans to come to Africa (specifically Ghana) to settle and invest in the continent.

It was formally launched by the President of the Republic of Ghana Nana Akufo-Addo in September 2019 in Washington, D.C. as a program for Africans in the diaspora to unite with Africans.

Its year, 2019, is symbolic, as it commemorates 400 years since the first enslaved Africans touched down in Jamestown, Virginia in the United States.
