Tabdeel

Through this project, Enactus JMI created a business model that paved the way for the underprivileged communities to enhance their standard of living and simultaneously, solving the problem of waste management. “Tabdeel” meaning change commenced with educating the rag pickers in the slums surrounding the area of Jamia Nagar. Biodegradable waste was utilised in composting pits to generate minimum waste reduction and in turn, the converted waste is further used as organic fertilizers. In the case of non-biodegradable wastes, steps were taken to make use of shredding machines to reduce the size of the waste generated and in turn re-using it into an assortment of other marketable products. This segregated waste was developed into products that provided an entrepreneurial opportunity to our community.
