The Cloth Bag Sewing Training Programme was held on July 18, 2025, at the Rideemaliyadda Livelihood Development Center. The training aimed to provide participants with skills to design and sew reusable cloth bags, promoting eco-friendly alternatives to plastic bags and creating income opportunities.
Key areas covered included:
- Selection of suitable fabrics and materials
- Measurement and pattern making for different bag styles
- Sewing techniques and assembly
- Finishing touches and quality checks
- Marketing and business potential of cloth bags
Participants received hands-on training and produced sample cloth bags during the session. The programme encouraged sustainable practices and empowered attendees, especially women, to start small-scale businesses with environmentally friendly products.
