- In a powerful and historic moment, Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum—a proud Ghanaian and one of the most forward-thinking minds of our era—was recognized by the United States Congress for his remarkable contributions to education and social progress in South Los Angeles.
This honor is more than a personal achievement. It is a testament to what transformative leadership rooted in service can accomplish. As the Founder of New Designs Charter Schools, Dr. Adutwum brought hope and opportunity to marginalized communities, using education as a tool for equity and empowerment. Today, countless lives stand as evidence of what purposeful leadership can build from the ground up.
Yet, Dr. Adutwum’s journey didn’t end in the U.S. He returned to Ghana with that same bold vision—applying it to reimagine the country’s education system. From STEM and TVET to Free SHS and systemic reforms, his leadership has sparked innovation, fostered creativity, and positioned Ghana for global competitiveness.
Dr. Adutwum doesn’t just talk about change—he delivers it.
As we celebrate this global acknowledgment, we are reminded that Ghana needs a leader with international experience, a strong record of achievement, and a deep commitment to meaningful transformation.
Ghana’s next chapter calls for more than traditional politics. It calls for bold vision, unwavering integrity, and proven results. It calls for the leadership of Dr. Yaw Osei Adutwum.
The future isn’t just ahead—it’s within reach. And with the right leadership, it is ours to claim.
