Thomas Barker, or ‘Tab’ as he is commonly known, has led Project Schoolhouse since its inception in 2004 as it’s Executive Director and Founder. The ideology behind Project Schoolhouse’s approach to development comes from an Economics degree from Carleton College, further work in Argentina on a Fulbright Grant, followed by many years abroad traveling and studying. Always working to minimize outside impacts while leveraging local initiative and knowledge, Tab works to turn scarce resources into sustainable development projects.
