This day which was on Thursday,10th October 2024, our representatives went to SOSU H to participate in one of their class sessions to have a brief interaction with them as they are preparing to part ways with them.
It was a wonderful moment which offered an opportunity for the students of SOSU H to ask them questions pertaining to Ghana and making comparism with Denmark.
Our reps cheerfully engaged them as they shared their diverse perspectives to them with each question asked.
The engagement was sealed with a little entertainment session to spice up the moment spent together so far in the Danish Land. It was as well symbolizing a farewell message to the Danish Students as this would be their last official engagement with them before their return to our beloved country Ghana.
The leadership of the union clubs for the two institutions involved in this pioneered program, extend their heartfelt gratitude to the Almighty and all stakeholders who diversely supported the birth and implementation of this project.
We are wishing and praying for traveling mercies back home to our reps as we look forward to having the opportunity to tapping into their new knowledge and experiences gained with this wonderful trip to Europe.

Day 8 visit in Denmark🤩
On Tuesday 08th October 2024, our delegates went to the University College of Copenhagen to learn about the programs they offer there
They later went to their stimulation center to see how they practice after their theoretical learning.
After which they then moved to their kitchen which also serves as a practice area for nutrition students. This offers the students an opportunity to put to practice that which they have been theoretically exposed to and hones their professionalism for the job market and society at large.
The exposure they had in this encounter is evident how advanced they are and it would be amazing seeing our institutions in Ghana reach such milestones someday.
The students cheerfully engaged them and they are as well getting along well with them. Socialization is key in the lives of everyone more especially the youth of today as it ushers them to numerous opportunities to further their journey not just in academics but in life.

The Committee presented 40 pieces of baby court sheet and flip-flops, 40 gallons of HSWU made liquid soap made by the women of the HSWU.
Soap is very important to modern life and an essential commodity all over the world. It will continue to have demand so long as human beings exist. In light of this, having the knowledge and skill to prepare soap has the greatest ability to help you generate a sustainable income for a long time. Health Services Workers' Union_Ashanti Region, undertook alternative livelihood training to imbue the women with the skill of making liquid soap. this initiative would help members of the Union generate extra income to improve their living standards. We plead that more of such priceless should continue to help more women to generate extra income. Thank you HSWU for this great initiative
