The 3-years agricultural training program, successfully started in August 2004, serves the educational needs of adolescent villagers of the surrounding area. It is funded primarily by Reach-Switzerland and has an enrollment of 45 students. The aim of this school is to train young people in agriculture - the ABC of Education - and prepare them in becoming subsistence farmers. The training equips them with tools that will enable them to improve the local farming economy when they return to their home villages. An outstanding feature of this program is the educational housing unit - a dormitory adapted to the educational need of the student - designed to allow cross-cultural exposure and to facilitate agricultural production.
Program Director: Jean-Luc Waber
