Their mission to "develop the first world" is implemented by finding solutions to problems in Europe and the United States by sending them to their think tanks to analyze.
Christopher Robbins, while working at the Peace Corps in Benin, witnessed "first world" countries attempting to solve the issues of a culture they were completely unfamiliar with [1] For him, the Ghana Think Tank was initially a response to that experience, turning it upside down and allowing other cultures to find solutions for the United States and their "first world" problems.
Some solutions proposed were increasing diversity by hiring immigrant Day Laborers to attend social functions in a wealthy town, recording "funny, dirty stories" of the elderly to share with younger individuals in order to help bridge generation gaps, and dressing as municipal workers to construct public works projects in Liverpool, UK.
In 2011, Ghana Think Tank was faced with a recurring problem of Latin American Immigrants in Queens being harassed by police officers for loitering.
The think tank traveled through rural villages asking Moroccans for help solving the problems using a solar powered donkey cart that included a video booth.
The problems were collected from Minutemen and Patriot organizations in the United States then were brought to recently deported immigrants at Casa Del Migrantes.
The Think Tank also met with Casa Maria del Asunta, home for deported women and children, and Mexican migrant-workers in the San Diego area.
