We Care

 

Established in 2009, the Inle Heritage Foundation aims to preserve, teach and promote the culture, traditions and customs of the ethnic people who live in the Inle Lake and Southern Shan State area. The hotel hires young local people and trains them to become skilled in the hotel and tourism industry. Additionally, they are taught about responsible tourism and sustainable development.

Working in conjunction with domestic and international experts, the foundation aims to teach farmers agricultural practices, which have no or minimum negative impact on the environment. Inle Lake’s water resources are regularly monitored and laboratory tested. The organisation also aims to focus on non-profit methods that will enable community members to become financially independent.

“Located in the southern part the Lake, in Innpawkhon Village, the 10-room property is only accessible by boat and offers a sanctuary for Burmese cats, Inthar style cooking classes and many other local activities. Inle Heritage is a not-for-profit organisation that looks after the cultural and natural heritage of the Inle Region.”
Kim, the discoverer.
