USHA And Meghalaya State Rural Livelihoods Society Partner To Empower Women

With the Meghalaya State Pollution Control Board and Forest and Environment Department enforcing plastic waste management rules and the government resultantly encouraging the use of cloth bags, the Meghalaya State Rural Livelihoods Society (MSRLS) saw this as an opportunity to curb pollution and also create employment. And that is what led to their collaboration with the USHA Silai School for training centres across the state. The association was initially started with two demonstration centres but their success led to the opening of 14 new training cum production centres, covering nine districts of Meghalaya.
