SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY

Akara enhances the quality of life and boosts the income of local communities through both direct and indirect employment opportunities by local entrepreneurs. Our efforts include establishing agricultural and processing cooperatives and developing plans for a community product distribution center. Additionally, we are committed to transforming the mine area and its surroundings into educational tourist attractions, promoting sustainable community-based tourism. We advocate for the establishment of homestays to cater to tourists seeking authentic community experiences.

Furthermore, we are steadfast in our commitment to nurturing and empowering community enterprises. We facilitate the development of marketing skills to broaden the reach of community enterprises’ products and services, thereby bolstering income streams. Presently, we proudly support 13 community enterprise groups.
