One important aspects of this journey is marketing Ghana on a worldwide scale. The expedition is being conducted under the “Visit Ghana” campaign, supported by a Ghanaian-developed app called Pebble. “We decided we wanted to sell Ghana we took a wholly built Ghanaian app. It’s called Pebble,” they said, urging audiences to follow their journey through the app. They stressed that Pebble provides top-notch information, such as cultural exposés and festivals from all throughout Ghana, so that people who are unable to go can be informed. “Try Pebble on App Store or Play Store; it’s all there,” they encouraged.
