OCEP is a joint undertaking between Europeans and Ghanaians to help enterprising young people to find a placement to do voluntary work in Ghana. To see who are involved and what we all do, check the staff page.

OCEP is a non-profit organisation, meaning that we don't need to make a profit. So what is it we want? We want to give young people the opportunity to broaden their mind by experiencing work and life in Ghana. Also, we hope to contribute to Ghana's development by sending volunteers to schools, orphanages, clinics and other projects.

In Europe, OCEP is a Dutch foundation (Stichting), officially registered at the Chamber of Commerce (KvK Amsterdam, registration number 14081424). In Ghana, OCEP is registered as a not-for profit company limited by guarantee, with registration number G.16,744.

The clip to your right was produced for a Dutch website and could give you an impression of who we are. It was mainly shot at the Teacher Adam Memorial School and the Assin Newtown International School and in it you will see some of our staff members and former volunteers.

Bear in mind that the clip was produced for a Dutch website, but obviously we are open for volunteers from everywhere and in practice most of our volunteers do come from countries outside the Netherlands.
