Barishal Nook

17/12/2023

Even on Victory Day, our learners passionately advocate for our cherished Barisal Nook to remain open. They express that, on this significant day, numerous friends who possess paint boxes opt to create artwork within the confines of their homes. However, for those who lack such resources, the Nook becomes their preferred destination to celebrate Independence Day.

Joy emanates as a consequence of victory, and on this day of jubilation, we willingly unlock the doors of our corner to partake in and amplify their delight. Together, we create an atmosphere where the spirit of independence is not only celebrated but also shared with our own community.

The ground floor of the Nook and the surrounding nearby area have been waterlogged for the last three days due to continuous rainfall.

1st floor of the Nook is open for the nearby community members to take place in case of emergency as it will take time to drain even after the rain stops.

গত ৫ জুন পালিত হয়েছে "বিশ্ব পরিবেশ দিবস ২০২৩"। যার প্রতিপাদ্য বিষয় ছিল ‘সলিউশনস টু প্লাস্টিক পল্যুশন’। আমাদের বরিশাল নুকের লার্নার্সরা গত ৩ বছর ধরেই প্লাস্টিককে রি-ইউজ করে বিভিন্ন সলিউশন দেবার চেষ্টা করে আসছে। যার ধারবাহিকতায় এ বছরও কমিউনিটি থেকে প্লাস্টিকের ফেলে দেয়া জিনিসপত্র সংগ্রহ করে তৈরি করা হয়েছে এসকল সুভেনিয়ার। যা আমারা আমাদের পার্টনার সংগঠনের হাতে তুলে দেই এবং তাদের সাথে এডভোকেসি করি যে, আমরা চাইলেই ‘সল্যুশনস টু প্লাস্টিক পল্যুশন’ বাস্তবায়ন করা সম্ভব।

On the 5th of June, the global community observed "World Environment Day 2023" under the theme of "Solutions to Plastic Pollution." As part of this initiative, learners from our Barishal Nook actively explored innovative methods to repurpose plastic waste. Leveraging their creativity and knowledge, they crafted a unique souvenir using discarded plastic sourced from their local community. This thoughtful gesture served as a means to convey our message to our partner organizations and sparked conversations and advocacy efforts centered around finding solutions to combat plastic pollution.
