05.47 Job creation.

This project can be expected to directly mobilise and/or employ about 4000 people, being about 10% of the adult population in the project area.. Some typical purely indicative examples are::

200 health club leaders;
1000 tank commission members;
200 well commission members;
10 members of the central management group;
100 people involved with the registration of local money transactions;
200 local money transaction assistants;
200 people responsible for local  recycling activities at tank commission level;
100 people responsible for recycling at well commission level;
200 guards for structures at well-commission level;
400 farmers growing  bio-mass for mini-briquettes;
100 mini-briquettes manufacturers;
100 manufacturers of items made from gypsum composites, such as tanks, stoves, sanitary ware;
50 installation technicians;
20 maintenance technicians;
10 people responsible for water quality control.

Once the financial structures are in place, potential for job creation in project areas is greatly enhanced. This potentially includes jobs for  the blind and the handicapped. For instance, an appropriate  radio-telephone network operated at tank commission level could alone provide occupation for up to 400 blind telephone operators.


Forward: domestic lighting systems.
