Diriliya Jayamaga - Sarukala divimaga
''She is the strength of the family, spirit of the country, real
architect of the society.Lighting up her life will lead to brightening future
of the world.''
As a mother, as a sister, as a wife and as a responsible citizen,
woman plays a major role in the society. If she is strong enough in her
abilities and skills to fulfill the responsibilities properly, this society
will become a much better place than today. Therefore we thought that improving
the abilities of the woman is the best way to empower them.
With this leading objective, “Diriliya jayamaga - sarukala divimaga” project was organized as a
bag sewing workshop. Through this project we expected to give them a hand to
start a new self-employment and introduce a solution to reduce the excessive
use of polythene bags which has become an environmental hazard in these days.
This project was conducted on 23rd July 2017 at “Wasana”
Sanasa society hall, Hapugala east with the participation of UOM Leos,
prospects and about twenty women from that area. Mrs. Roshini Samarasinghe
joined with us as the resource person. Finally, We were able to conclude our
project “Diriliya jayamaga- Sarukala divimaga” as
another remarkable step taken by Leo club of University of Moratuwa to empower
the women while giving a better solution to huge environmental issue.
