Community Consortium

Urban Planning - Cape Coast, Ghana

Since 1996 Community Consortium has been working with residents, traditional authorities, and municipal members of Cape Coast, Ghana in order to create long-term plans and initiate discrete projects in order to sustain the cultural heritage and diversity of this coastal community. The University of Virginia Cape Coast Archive is located here.

Initially funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), this work has been undertaken with the United States Committee, International Council on Monuments and Sites (US/ICOMOS)  and Ghana Heritage Conservation Trust.
