MOBILISER LA SCIENCE ET LA TECHNOLOGIE VERS LE DÉVELOPPEMENT DURABLE EN AFRIQUE RURALE ET AU-DELÀ
En mobilisant une science et une technologie de pointe selon une approche multisectorielle et multi-échelle pour un développement efficace, Millennium Promise cherche à accélérer le développement durable et à éradiquer la pauvreté dans les zones rurales d'Afrique subsaharienne et au-delà. Cela inclut l’institutionnalisation de notre approche en collaborant avec des partenaires de recherche et de travail de terrain appliqué. Cela implique de renforcer notre approche sous-régionale en fournissant une assistance technique et opérationnelle et un soutien au renforcement des capacités aux institutions de nos zones d'intervention.

Millennium Promise s’attaque aux causes profondes de l’extrême pauvreté en adoptant une approche globale du développement durable axée sur les communautés. Pour faire face aux nombreux défis auxquels chaque région est confrontée, MP utilise plusieurs outils tels que des agents de santé communautaires, une production alimentaire locale diversifiée, une agriculture commerciale, la lutte contre le paludisme, l'eau courante, l'électricité solaire et la connectivité, pour n'en nommer que quelques-uns. Ces multiples outils sont synergiques: chacun s’est avéré efficace pour atteindre son objectif principal, mais chacun contribue également à faire progresser plusieurs ou tous les objectifs.

SDG Promise Japan, a Tokyo-based nonprofit organization offering poverty reduction programs and other support measures to vulnerable populations will build a vocational school in Ghana. The world-famous architect Kengo Kuma is designing the school. Known for designing the main stadium of the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, a trip to Africa in 1978 was an eye-opening experience that shaped Kengo Kuma's design philosophy. Now, he is ready to reciprocate by designing the vocational school in Ghana, free of charge. SDGs Promise Japan will lead the construction and project. Millennium Promise Alliance is providing technical support to SDGs Promise for the vocational school project. The Ghana Vocational Training Institute will be built in the town of Manso Nkwanta, in Ghana's Ashanti region. The site is close to where Kuma visited as a graduate student. " The most important trip in my life was to West Africa when I was a graduate student, " Kuma told reporters. He recalled traveling south across Algeria to Niger, facing nothing but desert for days. " It was only when we arrived in Ghana that we came across green plants. It felt like I came home to Japan," he said. "Soil, trees and grass. The basic elements of all my designs were inspired by my trip to Ghana. " The facility comprises classrooms and dormitories set amid lush green trees, where students between 18 and 35 years old will take classes in stonemasonry, plumbing, carpentry, and other vocations -- over three years. The first classrooms will be ready late summer, and the rest will be built in accordance to funds raised for the project. The cost will be covered by the Japanese government's aid programs as well as crowdfunding. The idea is to offer local citizens a path to proper employment, as opposed to taking part in illegal gold mining, which is becoming prevalent in the region.
