Hundreds of families live near the dumpsite and earn an income through waste-picking. We have started the livelihood initiative to help members of this community find alternate livelihoods.
We have selected 34 ragpicker women to train them to make high quality handicrafts, paper bags and chemical-free colours from discarded flowers of the wholesale flower market. An embroidery unit and a paper recycling unit that produces paper on commercial order have also been set up with women from the locality.
We want to transform the lives of these women by giving them a safe space to work, and a new identity as artisans and stakeholders of the Producer Company.
