RURAL INDUSTRALIZATION URBANIZATION PLAN (RIUP)
Description

Our goal is to process raw materials in host communities where they come from through community/private ownership, creating jobs, reducing poverty, and improving infrastructure. We believe that raw materials produced in these communities will have added value for these communities if processed owned by them. To succeed we are forming cooperations with farmers, local governments, private entities to foster an environment favorable for manufacturing or processing. Example: Simple factory designs depending on the raw materials, water purification plant, and Solar powered electric systems.

Expected impact

1) Reduce poverty

2) Community ownership production

3) Increased infrastructure.
