YOUTH DEVELOP INOVATIVE ENTERPRISES AROUND TOURISM AND CULTURE

Continuing with the conception of micro-enterprises which promote the culture and identity in Ayacucho, more than 200 youngsters started a new phase of trainnings towards developing innovative business plans.

As an example, in Vilcashuaman, youth participants have suggested business ideas directly related to the promotion of local arts and tourist atractions, through tourist camps (which actually do not exist in that area), guided services, typical food’s restaurants, handicrafts, among others. These types of initiatives enable them to develop entrepreneurship capacities and competitiveness on themselves, which will facilitate their access to high demanding amployment opportunities and ensure their active participation on their communities’ development. On September, CEDRO aims to recognize the best business ideas, by offering 100 youngsters a start-up finance composed by 300 USD per beneficiary.
