Purpose: To make a start in this area for waste segregation and vermicomposting
Proper Address: Hiralal Gosavi Chawl, Pratap Nagar, Link Road , Jogeshwari (E)
Contact Person: Kalpana Mahale and Lilawati Tripathi, Sai Shivam Siddhi Seva Sahkari Sanstha.

Date: 22nd March 2007 - Day: Thursday - Time: 12. 30pm -1. 15pm

The same protocol was followed for this meeting too. Compared to the last area, the people of this area were not very receptive to the whole idea of waste segregation, however the number of such people was very few. People were apprehensive about storage of dry garbage in their house for more than a day, lack of space and how to keep two separate bins.

A proper place for a vermicomposting pit could not be identified due to lack of space. A second meeting will have to be arranged to educate them, and subsequently a trip to Sakinaka.
