| − | |GBE project description=The project focusses on supporting the Hai Vocational Training Centre in Hai district on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro through solar PV installations. The centre focuses on providing high quality training to the local population in various fields. Local farmers are trained in sustainable agriculture, with a focus on combining different crops that are best adapted to the changing climate in order to maximise crop yields. In addition, the training centre offers special courses on topics like the duration of the rainy seasons, beekeeping or optimal use of small fields and difficult terrain such as the hills of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Besides agriculture, the training centre also offers courses in other areas: For example, Hai Vocational Training Centre trains local youth to become electricians, carpenters, bricklayers and more. Considering the potential for tourism in the region and the need for qualified personnel in this sector, the centre also offers classes on tourism management. To support this growing range of different training programmes, the centre is equipped with a new solar-powered water pump that can be used to reach the deep water reserves on the volcanic mountain slopes. The project shows its innovative character by supporting a training institution located in a remote region of Tanzania. As solar energy has not been used to its full potential in the communities near Mt. Kilimanjaro, the project provides an introduction to the different opportunities that solar PV installations can offer to many people in the region. If students have the opportunity to interact with and learn about these technologies during their training, it helps to spread awareness about solar-powered installations. | + | |GBE project description=The project focusses on supporting the Hai Vocational Training Centre in Hai district on the slopes of Mt.
