Project සත්කාර - Phase II

 Empowering Tomorrow's Environmental Stewards

In our ongoing mission to protect our planet, the donation program of waste management equipment is selected for the second phase of Project සත්කාර. It was launched on April 3rd, 2024 at Kottawa North Dharmapala Vidyalaya. This time, we focus on educating and empowering school children on how to take care of the environment by handling waste responsibly. It's an important step in making sure our future is sustainable.

The big thing we did was give the school children tools to help manage waste better. We gave them special waste management equipment and reusable garbage bags. These might seem simple, but they remind the children every day about the importance of throwing away trash properly. And, the children are encouraged to start good habits early on.

The principal of Kottawa North Dharmapala Vidyalaya, Mr. Udayaruwan Mallikarachchi was thankful for the reusable garbage bags. He said they'd make a big difference in keeping the school clean and teaching the students about taking care of the environment. Looking ahead, we must keep teaching school children about the environment and giving them the tools they need to help. Projects like සත්කාර help us do just that. They help us plant the seeds of caring for the environment in young minds and inspire everyone to work together to protect our planet.

In the end, this second phase of Project සත්කාර is a big step forward in our efforts to teach about waste management and protecting the environment. By giving school children the right tools and knowledge, we are building a future where our planet is healthier and cleaner. Let's keep working together to make sure every person does their part in keeping our planet safe.

          Diyani 8.0 - Her Well (First Phase ) ~Access to basic sanitation should be a basic right, not a privilege~ Sanitation and hygiene practices are crucial for maintaining health and well-being, yet many people, particularly women, face significant barriers in accessing proper education and resources. Menstruation remains a taboo in many cultures, viewed as shameful or impure due to cultural and religious norms. This stigma prevents open discussions and limits access to information and resources. As the world observes International Menstrual Hygiene Day 2024 with the theme "Period Friendly World," the question remains: Are we ready to talk openly about periods? To address this, Leo Club of University of Colombo conducted "Her Well" on 11th October 2024, marking the first phase of Diyani 8.0.
