    SUBJECT: COSTA RICA'S 2006 AMBASSADOR'S FUND FOR REFUGEES
    PROPOSAL

    REF: STATE 41367

    ¶1.  Please find following Embassy San Jose's submission for
    the 2006 Ambassador's Fund for Refugees.

    ¶2.  Description of project: USD 18,618 to set up and operate
    a training center in San Jose to provide English language and
    computer skills training.  The center will provide English
    training from basic to advanced, with an emphasis on
    providing refugees sufficient English skills to find
    employment within Costa Rica's burgeoning tourism and service
    sectors.  In addition, the center will offer courses in basic
    computer operation, as well as introductory courses in
    Microsoft Office and Web publishing, also focused on
    preparing students for integration into the local economy.
    The center will be located in the centrally located
    headquarters of the Asociacion de Consultores y Asesores
    Internacionales (ACAI), UNHCR's local NGO partner.  Teachers
    at the center will be hired from local vocational centers,
    with additional tutoring and teaching assistance from local
    university students.  ACAI estimates that there is
    significant demand for such a center and anticipates
    enrollment of approximately 500 students per year, depending
    on class size and facility accommodations.

    ¶3.  Justification for this request: While Costa Rica's
    economy was historically dominated by agriculture, tourism
    has become the largest single component of GDP, followed
    closely by high-tech manufacturing and services.  English and
    computer skills are becoming important to finding a good job,
    since the vast majority of tourists are American or European,
    and many service jobs cater to an English-speaking clientele.
     Many of Costa Rica's 14,000 refugees who lack English and
    computer skills are unable to find work in the burgeoning
    tourism sector.  Costa Rica's refugee population is made up
    primarily of semi-educated Colombians, and virtually all the
    rest are from other Spanish-speaking countries in Latin
    America.  Lacking the vocational skills necessary for
    employment and without their traditional family support
    network, many refugees are economically marginalized and are
    forced to work in the dwindling agricultural sector.  ACAI
    hopes to provide a means for these refugees to gain the
    skills necessary to find employment in San Jose and other
    urban areas.

    ¶4.  Agency responsible for implementation/management of the
    project funds: UNHCR's local NGO implementing partner,
    Asociacion de Consultores y Asesores Internacionales (ACAI).
    UNHCR representative Agni Castro referred post to ACAI for
    suggested projects, and is supportive of this initiative.

    ¶5.  Budget: USD 18,618.
    -USD 8,830 for seven (7) computer workstations, one central
    printer and software license acquisition.  Computers will be
    purchased through Dell, which provides a local on-site
    service warranty, thereby reducing maintenance costs.  The
    language software to be used is Rosetta Stone, which will be
    deployed in a server structure.  The server-based version of
    the program is both less expensive and prevents theft of
    individual CD-ROM discs.  ACAI has already implemented the
    Microsoft Office suite within their office and will purchase
    seven additional licenses to allow for expanded usage in the
    learning center.
    -USD 800 for facilities upgrades to ACAI's office space.  The
    space to be used currently serves dual purpose as a garage
    and meeting room, but will be repurposed expressly to house
    the learning center.  This requires telephone and network
    wiring installation, air conditioning installation, and alarm
    system expansion to encompass the space.
    -USD 7,488 for one-year part-time instructor salaries.  ACAI
    estimates that it can host 36 hours of classes per week: 24
    hours of English, and 12 hours of computer training.  The aim
    is to have four English classes for two hours a day each,
    offered on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and three computer
    courses, also two hours each, on Tuesday and Thursday.  Local
    instructors are available for USD 4.00 per hour.  USG funds
    would finance the first year of instruction, while small
    tuition fees charged to the students will be used to fund
    continuing instruction.  ACAI estimates that students will
    have to pay approximately USD 10 per month for course
    enrollment in order to maintain the program.
    -USD 1,500 for furniture, floor covering, whiteboards, paper,
    printer supplies, and miscellaneous materials costs.

    ¶6.  Post certifies that it has the authority and capacity to
    award a grant to the intended recipient agency prior to the
    end of the fiscal year (September 30, 2006).

    ¶8.  ACAI supports the six core principles of the UN
    Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC), and post can fax the
    required documentation to demonstrate this at PRM's request.
