Look at slide :

 

22.  Work for all. 

 

The goal of local integrated development projects under the Model is to create a cooperative, interest-free, inflation-free local economic environment in each project area where individual initiative and true competition are free to flourish.

 

Occupations shown in the slide are only indicative of work opportunities generated automatically in the course of execution of each individual project. Others have been mentioned in various sections of the course. For example in Section 2 of Block 1 : 07. Food security  on plant nurseries, work opportunities for blind and handicapped people were mentioned. «Labour »  is needed for the construction of primary schools (often up to +/- 200 in the framework of each project) and secondary schools; hundreds of university students and graduates who are currently unemployed in larger towns can return to each project area to act as teachers in the schools to be built there. Think of the possibility of setting up +/- 200 small sports centres ; a local football championship ; cultural activity groups......

 

1. Research.

 

Write a one-page report on current unemployment in your project area.

 

2. Opinion.

 

Have the courage to dream ! Describe on two pages how you think the execution of an integrated development project in your area could eliminate unemployment there and ensure productive activities for everyone.
