African Ancestry, Educators, Identity Experts Launch DNA Education Project during Historic Black History Month

Posted by admin on Feb 3, 2009

African Ancestry, Inc., the DC-based company that pioneered DNA-driven ancestry tracing for people of African descent in the U.S, inspires students with the launch of its “Ancestry Education Project” during this monumental Black History Month.

With DC Public School Walker Jones Education Campus as its first beneficiary, the pilot program employs interdisciplinary learning modules such as ancestry DNA tracing, life sciences and world geography and identity development — in a classroom setting. Slated to expand to other markets later this year, the goal of Ancestry Education Project is to promote science education, achievement motivation and positive psychological development among the nation’s young people.
