PCO has developed a project to create economic opportunity for people in the Polar Regions (primarily the Arctic), this offering them an economic alternatives and a means to improve their quality of life.
Description
PCO has started a long term project to raise a fund to develop and maintain economic opportunities for and with the indigenous peoples of the Arctic. Currently this project in in planning stage, and a significant amount of market and other research is required in order to complete the pre fund raising study. The ultimate purpose of the fund is to provide education and employment opportunities to indigenous peoples of the Arctic, enabling them to perform tasks and provide services to businesses around the world while remaining in their region (Why outsource to a different continent, when you can do so to people in the same time zone). Also, by creating employment opportunities you provide alternatives which uplift the local society as well. The PCO is in need of funds to conduct in field market research and meetings with various groups and organisations in order to complete a study prior to launching the fund raising itself. If you would like to be involved in not just supporting the PCO in this regard, but also the people in the Arctic, please contact us. Study Phase Budget: US$ 150k Fund: US$ 50 Million (estimated, study will provide exact requirement.)Benefit for all
