Your trash is our cash. Inventure Academy students learnt about how to do it from the Business unit for women in JanakiRam layout, Kamanahalli, Bangalore who make beautiful handbags with discarded tetra packs and earn livelihood.
A 3D project started by the Centre for Social Action wing of Christ University aims to make empowerment desirable for the women by making them dynamic in their development.
“The women purchase the used tetra packs from the garbage unit at Rs 6 per kg. We then cut each packet, wash it with hot water and then with a disinfectant. The packs are then let to dry. Colorful strips are then cut out and woven exquisitely to produce beautiful carry bags” said the Kala the director of the unit.
" Transforming trash to cash is an eco-friendly lesson for everyone to learn, "says Evanka, a student of Grade 6, Inventure Academy.
