Iraqi Kurdistan 


CONSTRUCTION OF A FIFTH PROFESSIONAL TRAINING CENTRE
TRAINING AND SUPPORT TO BEEKEEPERS

Context of the project : Mission Enfance has been working in Iraqi Kurdistan for the last 19 years. Emergency, reconstruction of schools and villages, have given the association expertise on this region. The actual situation of Iraq and notably the one of Iraqi Kurdistan, with the massive arrival of the population fleeing from terror in Mossul and Baghdad, encourages Mission Enfance to pursue its support to this region.
The economical situation of Iraqi Kurdistan is still difficult in this context. After years of isolation, the population needs to be trained to basic professions, in order to stop the depopulation and allow the young people to find work.

We have already constructed four professional training centres, and have the project of constructing a weaving workshop in the collective village of Sheladizeh, for the Iraqi women recently back from exile in Iran. The equipment and functioning of these centres are fully taken in charge by the Barzani Foundation.

We are louching the new start of beekeeping in the Kurd villages, by free training to 20 peasants in our training centres.

We will be supporting the families which have run away from the massacres perpetrated in Bagdad and Mosul, and taken refuge in the town of Qaraqosh, where they arrived with nothing and traumatised.

Aim of project :
Restart the local initiative of the young people in the collective village of Sheladizeh, allowing them professional training, and give a future to the women of this region.

Description of project : Build a 500 m² Professional Training Centre, of 4 classrooms, a director's office, a hall, warehouses. The same will be done for the carpet weaving workshop.
