Volunteers will be working with waste products like polythene items, discarded vehicle tyres, water bottles, cans, old furniture, unused clothes, eco-bricks, farm waste and bamboos etc to recycle them and make products of uses. This will involve education and building entrepreneurial skills among staff and local communities. For over four years, RUCHI has already been involved in creative use of bye products, waste materials or unused/unwanted items into new usable materials.
In between you will also be participating in our ongoing humanitarian actions like Non formal education, women empowerment initiatives, environment conservation, waste upcycling, organic farming etc and interacting with local people on daily basis

Notlar
Upcycling is the process of turning waste materials or unwanted products into new, more valuable, or better quality items. It's also known as creative reuse. Upcycling is different from recycling, which is an industrial process that turns products into new materials of lesser quality.
Upcycling can help reduce the amount of waste in landfills and promote a more sustainable lifestyle.
