“ The JYDP started off as a necessity, to encourage the youth of the area to join
the hospitality industry.”
– Hiran Cooray (Chairman - Jetwing)

“We invited school leavers who are seeking for jobs to come and learn
hospitality with us. As a result many came and successfully completed [the
program] and are working with us.”

“We believe in providing a career, not just a mere work opportunity. Therefore,
we strive to provide the necessary skills and opportunities for the youth to grow
and develop their careers.”

“ The advantages or even the financial benefits of this goes back into the
community [] where the students have being recruited from.”
– Kumudini Rosa (Senior Advisor - GIZ)
