Grades 6–12 · Five day Research Simulation Task
Ghanaian Foreign Policy and Western Influence
Investigate how Ghana pursued an independent foreign policy while negotiating foreign finance and facing Cold War pressure. This separate RST focuses on 1957–1966, with a later comparison to the foreign policy principles of Ghana’s 1992 Constitution.
Ghanaian and U.S. perspectives
Compare Nkrumah’s 1964 letter to President Johnson with U.S. records on the Volta project, selective aid pressure, advance knowledge of coup planning, and the use of assistance after the 1966 coup. Students distinguish documented actions, author perspectives, and claims requiring corroboration.
