Artisan Center in Cite Blode, Cite Soleil

Cite Blode is home to an artisan's cooperative of young men and women looking to create a sustainable and positive livelihood for themselves through creativity.Cite Soleil is a community with many youth but access to few jobs, which means that there are thousands of talented youth with nowhere to go for employment. This is one of the primary causes of instability in the area. 

However, some youth take an initiative to create liveilhoods for themselves, and that is exactly what a group of young people in a neighborhood called Cite Blode did. They found young men and women in the area that were skilled in arts and artisanwork, and formed a small cooperative and collective workspace to show their works and create a livelihood for themselves.
