On Nov.22, Shobha Menon from the NGO Nizhal conducted an engaging session with students of Vidya Sagar at the Kotturpuram Infinity Play Spaces. This initiative focused on educating students about the unique characteristics of the native trees planted on Nov.14.
As part of a community support development program for persons with disabilities, the students were trained to act as monitors and liaison agents, ensuring the protection of the trees. They will also educate park visitors weekly about the importance of native trees, fostering awareness and inclusion.
This thoughtful initiative highlights the synergy between environmental conservation and empowering individuals with disabilities. Vidya Sagar is a prominent organisation dedicated to disability empowerment, based out of Kotturpuram. They can be contacted at 98400 87540.
