The Basel Mission and its Legacies: Second part of a Ghanaian-Swiss teaching project
“What’s God got to do with it?” At the end of the project's journey in the footsteps of the Basel Mission, the answer to this question – the title of one of the preparatory seminars – was clear: Quite a lot, whatever you may or may not think of Him.
In the first week of July 2024, students and instructors from the University of Basel, the Akrofi-Christaller Institute (ACI), and the University of Ghana (UG) participated in an excursion in Basel and southern Germany. This journey, which followed a first that took place in Ghana in early 2024, allowed participants to experience and assess how the historical legacies of the BM are presently perceived, preserved, and presented in Europe.
