Inspire The Future Aligning Conservation and Community for Sustainability Future Focussed Education and Employment in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa There is an initiative underway to connect the area between Addo National Park and The Great Fish River Nature Reserve into a single Conservation Landscape. The long term success of this project requires a Sustainable Conservation Economy. A conservation economy includes elements that extend well beyond the technical boundaries of conservation, but align together to the overall objective of a sustainable economic model where both humans and wildlife prosper. Within this and with the Eastern Cape specifically in mind, Education and Employment are critical elements of the Conservation Economy. The Inspire The Future programme seeks to: ● Interest children in maths, science and coding via Drones ● Build the required fundamentals through building and equipping computer labs and providing maths and science digital curriculums and in person tutoring support ● Develop and extend existing bursary, learnership and employment pathways: Maths and science tutors Drone and Coding Club Facilitators Drone operators with Remote Pilot Licenses employed in conservation and traditional agriculture Coding industry employment largely unrelated to conservation, but resulting from the conservation economy Inspire The Future Collaboration Network The Be Moved Collective - connects people with the causes they support, developing numerous initiatives to support the Addo2Fish vision, Inspire The Future being the project focussing on education and employment Indalo Reserve Network - private game reserves between Addo and Fish, each with Foundations connected to and active in their local communities Inspire Africa - Inspire S.T.E.A.M. is expanding the dialogue and application of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Mathematics with drone technology in schools and tertiary education organisations BBD Software - Software development firm with established CSI commitment and delivery, specifically building and equipping computer labs in rural Eastern Cape communities Turnkey Modular - off-site production of modular solutions ideally suited for on site assembly computer labs Email info@bemovedcollective.org or call Lance Wynne on +27 83 455 6555 to discuss how you feel you could be involved in Inspiring The Future
