Ban Pa Nor

Ban Pa Nor in the North of Luang Prabang is populated by the indigenous group of the „Khmu” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmu_people). In this region, the illiteracy rate is very high. Since the start of the Ban Pa Nor education initiative that is strongly supported by Education for Life since 2012, a lot has been achieved: A delapidated school was reconstructed, a kitchen was built School fees for children of the poorest families have been and are being paid School materials, medical and sanitary products, shoes and clothes are regularly delivered personally by members of Education for Life Formerly undernourished school children receive now a healthy lunch every day (see Update of our lunch box initiative) A fish pond was established to complement the lunch of the children Since 2013 flowers have been cultivated and sold for income generation Here you get an impression about the development in Ban Pa Nor: Here you see the fish pond, diligent school children and some flower beds:    Now, as a next step, water is needed, more specifically a water irrigation and a pumping system for improving income generation and thereby providing economic, social and ecological sustainability, see Water Pipeline for Ban Pa Nor.…
