Social Tourism …
In order to keep the WSP work funded and to become self-sustaining, we have chosen to use Social Tourism in this area. Since Tanzania is a beautiful country and is a destination desired by tourists, the best way to do this is by doing Social Tourism activities.
The aim is to create a holiday package consisting of a Life Skills Retreat, combined with a Safari and a visit to Zanzibar. This package will be sold to foreign tourists and the proceeds will be used for Educational Interventions and the running of the Programme.
WSP currently owns a site in Karatu that has been set up to function as a hostel. This hostel will be renovated to enable the running of the Social Tourism Retreats.
The Umoja Eco Hostel and Volunteer Center will facilitate volunteers and high-end tourists in a rural environment, maintaining the local cultural and traditional elements.
