Progress report of “Lochana” (recycled paper product project) from Shalika-Sri Lanka

Recycled Paper Products

“Lochana” Recycled Paper Product Project

Miss Susila was born with low vision and became totally blind later in life. She was one of the beneficiaries of the Recycled Paper Product Project launched by the Sri Lanka Council for the Blind. After the completion of her training, she has been endeavouring to perfect her skills. Today, she makes recycled paper products for sale as well as for self satisfaction. She is happy that she learnt the craft as it not only augments her income, but also because it brings her the pleasure of creating something worthwhile.
