The Problem

There is a Lemur Conservation Site nearby in need of a place for interns to reside before, maybe, transferring from the US to Madagascar to help the lemurs in their native habitat. The Conservation Demonstration site I am planning will act as mock-living conditions for interns who choose to travel there.

Plan of Action

I plan to first clear the site of weeds and get it generally fixed up (ie adding bars to platforms that are missing them) and then proceed to set up living conditions (ie tents) and fix up the shower platforms as well as dig a fire pit and construct a fuel efficient stove (as used in Madagascar) to ensure the interns can effectively live overseas.
