Appropriate Technologies Demonstration
On the 10th of June, 2014, the Home Based Project (HBP) team carried out an appropriate technologies demonstration in Senapur and Marvante (Kundapura). 23 children gathered for the demonstration.This activity was inspired by a demonstration that previously took place in our HYSCO camp in Tamil Nadu.
The HBP team members carried out three demonstrations:
Using tetra-packs to make mats
By cutting and ironing out 145 tetra-packs, HBP team members, along with the children created 12 floor mats.
Using spoiled milk to make paint
Spoiled milk, lemon juice and beetroot juice were added together before being filtered to create natural paint for children to use
Using eucalyptus oil to make natural hand sanitizer
Adding cooking oil and lemon juice to eucalyptus leaves, storing it for five days before filtering out the liquid, participants produced natural hand sanitizer
