Celebrating 10 Years of Waste Warriors in Corbett | The Fun Side of Paryavaran Sakhis

21 Paryavaran Sakhis. Unfiltered. Having loads of fun, and telling stories that they usually don't: all in an attempt to go beyond the mundane yet crucial job of waste management carried out by them. The Paryavaran Sakhi Model is addressing the waste crisis in the Indian Himalayan Region through community empowerment, gender equality, and inclusive livelihoods. Shaped formally in October 2021, this initiative is operational in Jim Corbett Tiger Reserve in Uttarakhand. It engages women from diverse backgrounds, equipping them with entrepreneurial roles for effective waste management amid challenges like social barriers, gender norms and limited livelihood opportunities. 21 rural women, in addition to their household responsibilities, farm work and taking care of cattle, perform door-to-door dry waste collection, segregation in designated waste banks, and sale of recyclable waste. Furthermore, the women handle awareness campaigns, record keeping, organising cleanup drives and focused group discussions, baling of waste, and on-boarding new community members. To dive deeper into the model, we invite you to read through a comprehensive case study which will be out soon! Stay tuned:   / waste-warriors   Waste Warriors Society is a non-profit catalysing systemic change to solve the waste management crisis in the Indian Himalayan Region.
