The Think Deeper Writing Competition

The Think Deeper Writing Competition (TDWC) was created to promote critical literacy and inspire Ghanaian high school students to engage with philosophical texts and think critically about our role in the world. AJANO believes that every young person can impact the world positively if only we take a stand. 2022's prompt for the TDWC was "How to Live the Good Life". We wanted to find out what young people consider essential when thinking about this topic.

In an amazing outpouring of support, we have received over 200 entries. Our judges from Ashesi University, Columbia University and Yale University have finalized the results of the competition. Congratulations!!! to all the winners and well done to all those who entered the competition!
