Educate. Empower. Experience

Our Mission:

Our Vision:

empower local communities, especially those engaged in surf tourism, by strategically expanding job opportunities and elevating household incomes

Recognising the growing nature of surf tourism in the Mentawai Islands, the goal is to ensure that local communities are not just spectators, but active participants who can capitalise on the industry's growth. By creating avenues for employment within the surf tourism sector, the vision seeks to uplift the community economically.

Additionally, it emphasises gender equality; promoting equal participation for both men and women, not only within the workplace but also in the broader community. 

Expanding job opportunities

Teaching English to local people in the Mentawai Islands is crucial as it opens up job opportunities in the growing surf tourism industry, enabling them to communicate effectively with a global audience. Proficiency in English enhances their ability to engage with tourists, fostering a more inclusive and economically sustainable community amidst the burgeoning international interest in the region's surf culture.

Elevating household incomes

Offering education opportunities plays a pivotal role in expanding job prospects by equipping individuals with the skills and knowledge needed in the job market. As job opportunities increase, household incomes rise, ultimately contributing to the alleviation of poverty by empowering individuals and communities to achieve financial stability and improved living standards.

Creating Gender Equality

Providing education opportunities to all people, including in traditionally male-dominated cultures, is a catalyst for gender equality by breaking down barriers and empowering women with knowledge and skills. Education equips women to challenge societal norms, pursue diverse career paths, and participate actively in decision-making processes, fostering a more balanced and equitable society.
