Summary

This project will positively influence ignored labor pools: chronically unemployed, marginalized communities, orphans, recovering addicts to address staff shortage to serve Madagascar hospitality and tourism industry. Travel to the capital to polish foreign languages will diminish. The renovation of this historical landmark will also signify the preservation of the architectural ensemble of the Old Town Fianarantsoa. We include lemur identification in our curriculum to reduce human-wild conflict

Challenge

With all the opportunity Madagascar has to offer, it's hard to believe that one can't find enough labour supply within tourism industry. Competent staff can dry up very quickly. Private companies steal employees from one another. Amid low unemployment within the region, no surprise that finding competent staff in tourism can be a real challenge. 92 percent of the population live under 5 dollars a day, sustainability is not considered as a priority. People clear the forest as a result

Solution

Building an education and a civic center. This project converts a traditional home into community run spaces to tailor job-training program for tourism workforce. Each room needs important repairs before it can truly be effective resources for our communities. That is why we are asking for your support. The curriculum includes life skills training such as job interview techniques, table manners, food safety, communication, foreign language, etc. The plan would include 20 students in each module

Long-Term Impact

This year, the project will empower 100 people allowing them to rise out of poverty, which will provide for their families' well-being. The building a historical landmark is located in the historical section of Fianarantsoa where nineteenth-century buildings form a coherent architectural ensemble. The project will feature: environmental outreach, space for community meeting, small groups, tutoring, computer literacy, etc. We are a proud member of the Lemur Conservation Network since 2017
