An amazing success story from our team on Mantanani Island in Sabah! In 2019 alone, we've successfully conducted 20 training sessions in alternative livelihoods and capacity-building skills. A total of 209 participants from the local community were trained.
These training sessions include eco-friendly snorkel guiding, homestay marketing, language classes (English and Mandarin), computer skills, baking, and film-making, aims to build the capacity and enhance skills among the local community that can contribute to establishing a community-based ecotourism on Mantanani Island.
This will in turn improve their livelihoods through the generation of more income. Congratulations to our Cintai Mantanani team for organising and carrying out these training sessions. More to come in 2020!
