Tourism and Sustainable Development Community Project
Quand on parle de gestion de sites en Haïti, il faut faire allusion notamment à plus de 500 sites environ répertoriés, mais abandonnés à leur sort, peu ou inexploités ». 1
As part of the implementation of our project tourism and sustainable community development (TDCD), we intend to move the website to make Online and Distance Learning Education throughout the apprenticeships and skills-trades professional training and post-secondary programs in environmental protection and conservation of biodiversity, heritage and tourism cultural, sustainable tourism; management of tourism, hospitality and catering and also events management through the project Website’s Canadian ODL in TH&R Management to support sustainable community development through the magnificent rehabilitation of heritage and historic sites, such as forts & fortifications, natural sightseeing’s and tourist attractions.
The target audience of this dynamic website will consist of learning and learners are young adults who are enrolled with a 12th high school diploma (in the third cycle in the Haiti’s education system and graduated with the Baccalauréat 2ième Partie Diploma also knows a Terminal II Diploma or equivalent, or qualifying work experience) and will be able to develop ecotourism circuits, cultural, natural and historical heritage by strengthening the activities of tourism promotion in their local communities around rural land in Haiti. This project engendered strong economic benefits since, in the short term, qualifications and thus provides excellent employment opportunities to many young Haitians from rural communities. Also to young adults in local communities will learn what they need to do to manage the protection to rebuild the environment and biodiversity.
This project sustainable community development will also allow the same time contribute to the protection of the environment in their local communities as well as the strategy of environmental protection and biodiversity at the national level in their Peyi Ayiti.
SKILLED WORKERS WITH CULTURAL TOURISM TRAINING IN THE NEEDED SKILLED TRADES
Following the disclosure of the International Statistical Travelers’ public report in May 2007 up today by the governing body, l’Autorité Aéroportuaire Haïtienne (AAH) (Haitian Airports Authority). All Statistics reports continuously showed that travelers including business travelers and tourists arrived especially during peak periods during the summer holiday, the season of Christmas and New Year. Since the descendants of origin Haitian especially it’s Diaspora traveled mostly during carnival time « Mardi-Gras » in February and in July, periods of religious beliefs, community feasts, country fairs and harvest in order to attend religious festivals during the summer in their native region.
Cultural tourism requires double training, both in cultural and heritage studies and management of small and medium enterprises. « Le tourisme culturel exige une double formation, à la fois en études patrimoniales et culturelles et en gestion de petites et moyennes entreprises, croient les organisateurs du colloque international autour du thème « Patrimoine, tourisme culturel et développement durable en Haïti : enjeux et perspectives d’avenir ».
« La formation des étudiantes et étudiants, ainsi que des professionnelles et professionnels, sur les notions de patrimoine et de la culture, se révèle également capitale pour la concrétisation du projet d’un tourisme culturel florissant en Haïti »2. Indeed, those skilled workers with degrees or training in the needed professions and/or skilled trades will be able to sustain the small medium-sized businesses and micro-enterprises in Tourism, such as Cultural Tourism, Ecotourism, Recreatourism, Agro-tourism, Adventure and Leisure Tourism and, to create a tourism circuit by strengthening existing elsewhere in the countryside regions.
