Under the framework of the Skills Development Project, a second KAB pilot phase was implemented in 7 vocational training centres in various regions in South Lebanon. Following the success of the first Business plan competition that was held in July 2010, KAB participants were encouraged to submit a business plan to be viewed and assessed by a jury on 13 and 14 January 2011.
59 business plans were submitted of which 15 were chosen to present their business plans in front of the jury. There were 4 in-kind prizes of which a 1st prize amounting to 1000$, a 2nd prize amounting to 750$, a 3rd prize of 500$ and a 4th prize of 250$. As there were business plans presented by very young students, honorary prizes were awarded to 3 students with outstanding business plans.
The winners were presented with certificates and their respective prizes during a graduation ceremony that was held in Nabatieh on the 29th of March 2011.
Attached are some photos of the event and the winners.
