As the industry does not need foreign languages or specialized education
- Enable small and new businesses, especially in untapped communities, to prosper and create good jobs through access to capital, networks, and technology
The Red Sea Governorate has only job opportunities in the tourism field, which require foreign language proficiency at least two languages, higher education, and good appearance, which makes it difficult to find opportunities for women or Craftsmen Illiterate, who cannot support their families And take care of their children
While there are many wastes that can be recycled and create an exportable industry and product, it can even provide the national income which is Tanning fish skins.

Our project aims to employ , divorced and widowed women, especially illiterate ones, to help them educate their children and live in dignity
We create innovative job opportunities and make a product from waste, exportable, team workers including women with simple abilities that do not enable them to work in tourist activities in Red Sea governorate where there are only tourist projects and work in tourism field
Of course, we will teach women the principles and stages of tanning fish skins
And the manufacture of shoes and bags, as we will teach them to read and write for who are illiterate in addition to teaching the English language for the others
One of the reasons for the lack of sustainability of the fish canning industry is its need for high technologies and expensive modern machinery. Therefore, if funding was available to purchase advanced machinery and equipment, it would have been better for all parties.
We plan in the future to use strong data science, artificial intelligence, or machine learning to benefit humanity
