Description:Its time to alter the way we perceive discard, donations and beneficiaries. Goonj is proud to launch its first book "100 stories of Change - Vol I", making a case for this shift. The 25 stories (in this first volume of 100 stories) are those of simple village inhabitants initiating impactful changes to improve their lives. They offer factual evidence on how 3000+ tons of urban discard (every year) becomes the currency for such committed village development work – covering a wide range of issues such as water, infrastructure, menstrual hygiene, disaster relief as well as ignored basic needs like utensils and wedding kits.Every story is an illustration of how the so-called beneficiaries were the change agents, the discard were not donations but a resource to trigger the change. Be it the story where the women in Champaran quit their employment in liquor factories and got engaged in making “Sujnis” (hand-made quilts) from scraps of cloth that would otherwise be wasted; or the one where the women of Langoti village in Khandwa, MP dug a well with basic tools in the time of a drought. In all instances, Goonj initiatives such as “Cloth for Work” provided much needed resources like clothes and footwear, organized from collected urban discard.Apart from the powerful impact of urban discard, these stories present verifiable, viable case studies on the concept of circular economy.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
