Acerca de Dwishojoyee B

Dwishojoyee’s initiative focuses on helping young people move away from being ‘Noise-makers’ and towards being ‘Change-makers’.

Dwishojoyee started her initiative ‘The Soft Move’ with a motto of helping young people move away from being ‘Noise-makers’ and towards being ‘Change-makers’. The 30-member team led by Dwishojoyee, runs ‘The Paperbag Project’ that works closely with street vendors in helping them switch from plastic bags to paper bags. As of May 2022, the team also engages over 5000 school students to produce these paper bags from newspapers during a weekly dedicated period. This helps students understand the ground realities of creating long-term solutions that work for all.
