I am excited to welcome 20 new workers to the Nangi Village paper project. Training is in place this week, putting us in the position to think about specified roles such as harvesting, quality control, printing and finances. There could also be other local investments to think about along side the school. It is a brilliant time of the year to be making, and a brilliant time to be selling too!
- Comments, ideas and constructive criticism appreciated!
It's time to document some of the work of White Circles. A screening of The High Road by Myee G, will take place at the UNE, Armidale NSW Friday the 11th November at 7pm.
It is an honor to have been involved in the documentary.

Chapter 2- What matters
Nepal
Here- we have the Tharu culture in Nepal. A beautiful bunch of people who have been hardly done by, particularly in regards to slavery incidents. This doesn't tamper their strong understanding of other people, or the amount of love they're able to give.
Slavery is being abolished and there is a drastic need for job and independence as these girls move out of the education system. For Freida Mountain, the energy, colour, love and skills were the beginning of what will be a dedication to these people. We now have the opportunity to work in trading to Australia from Nepal. A lot of fair trade research, justification and funding needs to occur, but I look forward to more and more involvement!
This environment acts as a stigma for my next range...
