Caused by the need of help and development after years of civil war and rebellion a group of people in Bouar, CAR met and decided to invite a couple from Denmark who had former been working for several years in CAR to come and build a development center, a community house for everybody in the district of Herman, a meeting place with the aim of helping people getting a better and more safe life, economically and socially. Now the center is built and activities have started. The aim of the project is to offer children, young people and adults development for a more safe foundation of their lives through education, playing and learning - and by this as citizens taking part in the life of the local society. Activities: Workshop for young people and adults: Aim to teach them carpentry, mason, velding etc. By this making them able to get a good living and future. Kindergarten for small children: By teaching and playing educate them as independent people, using their creativity and abilities, making them able to be in a fellowship with others. Cultivating methods: By learning better methods and growing different crops people are getting better nutrition and better income. Reading classes for mainly women: Many are alliterate. Being able to read and write will give them more freedom and self-determination.
