It was high time to put an end to their poverty and to provide an alternative to perilous attempts to reach European shores by boat. perilous boats,\u201d says Ute-Henriette Ohoven, founder of the \u201cYOU Foundation \u2013 Education for Children in Need\u201d and driving force of the project \u201cBaraka \u2013 from Slum to Modern Neighborhood.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201eIt is an atrocity how human trafficers sell death to refugees while the world is watching. This brutal business is absolute madness and I am fighting it with all my strength,\u201d says Ute-Henriette Ohoven. For many years she has been trying to improve the lifes of more than 2000 intra-African refugees by introducing small changes such as the construction of a school and a well.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of 2014, she finally decided to end the lack of perspective for the slum residents. Baraka is being transformed into a place with a future. Step by step, modern residential buildings, a kindergarten and a health station are erected. Shops, garages and start-ups provide work, vocational training and support the local economy. A services sector can develop, the inhabitants can earn a living and are able to live with dignity \u2013 and assume all associated rights and obligations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/you-stiftung.de\/planungen-fuer-baraka-gehen-voran\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more about progress in Baraka.<\/a><\/p>\n<div>The President of the Republic of Senegal, Macky Sall provides powerful backing for the project: \u201cThe government will support this pilot project for the world in any way it can. We want to show how refugees and the poorest members of a society can find a just home.\u201d By now, he has received the plans drawn by the D\u00fcsseldorf architects Bruno Braun and Prof. Jochen Schuster. Already back in September, the President had promised to quickly issue the permits required to commence construction. First families can leave their huts, demolition can start and modern homes can be constructed. Over time the slum will transform into an intact neighborhood for many young people<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/you-stiftung.de\/besuch-im-senegal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more about Ute Ohovens recent visit in Baraka<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The thorough planning ends with the approval for the transformation of Baraka. Ute Ohoven and her daughter invested many months of organization and engaged in numerous conversations with the government of Senegal, architects and sponsors.<\/p>\n<p>The approval and the trust of the residents are a key ingredient for the ultimate success of the Baraka project. Ms. Ohoven, who is called \u201cMamaBlond\u201d by everybody in the slum and who has earned the trust of its residents, says: \u201cI gave the people in Baraka my word.
