About Urban House Suriname
Urban House Suriname (UHS) was founded in 2016 by Aline Dusabe, with one clear mission: to cultivate and exploit the alakondre DNA of young people in Suriname from the best of the young people themselves. UHS makes this happen with Coworking, University of life and Career support programs for young people aged 12 and over with a focus on teens and young adults.
The spirit of Urban House Suriname
No guru, no method, no teacher
With UHS programs, attention is paid to the fact that the development of every young person is different. This varies according to age, frame of reference, talent, gender, etc. So it comes down to creating a humanistic environment and community in which every young person in Suriname can find his way from his or her individuality. We not only provide the necessary knowledge, but also the attitude and skills to work with that knowledge in the real world.
