Achie­ving gre­at things tog­e­ther

OPC in Gha­na and Up Deve­lo­p­ment in Switz­er­land are com­mit­ted to sus­tainable, healt­hy deve­lo­p­ment – with a focus on harm­o­ny, com­mu­ni­ty spi­rit and app­re­cia­ti­on. Fol­lo­wing con­so­li­da­ti­on in 2023, the new­ly for­med team suc­cessful­ly laun­ched its pro­ject work within the nine depart­ments in 2024. With this foun­da­ti­on, OPC con­ti­nues to deve­lop towards func­tio­ning, rege­ne­ra­ti­ve com­mu­ni­ties based on bio­lo­gi­cal prin­ci­ples.
