Badung Trains Women to Turn Waste into Products with Selling Value

BADUNG, GARISBUMI.com – The Badung Regency Government is equipping women members of the Dharma WanitaSatu (DWP) with the skills to use waste into products of marketable value. This training is aimed at opening home business opportunities while supporting waste reduction.

Home Industry Training for Women was held by the Badung Regency Population Control, Family Planning, Women's Empowerment and Child Protection (DP2KBP3A) Service in the Flamboyan Meeting Room, Badung Government Center, Thursday (15/10/2026).

Head of the Women's Empowerment and Gender Mainstreaming Division of DP2KBP3A Badung, I Nyoman Subratha, said the training aimed to increase participants' creativity in processing materials that had previously been considered useless.

"The issue of waste is becoming a concern. We want waste to really be used into products that have selling value," said Subratha when opening the activity.

Participants were introduced to opportunities for using waste as material for creative products. It is hoped that these skills will become provisions for starting a business from home and opening up an additional source of income for the family.

According to Subratha, utilizing materials available in the surrounding environment can also strengthen women's involvement in productive economic activities.

"This program is also a step to strengthen the role of women in productive economic activities. By utilizing the potential in the surrounding environment, women can develop creativity while opening additional income opportunities for the family," he said.
