30.6.2002 The Goa Foundation will be organising a one-day Orientation Course on the use of earthworms for processing of organic waste (garbage) generated by hotels, companies, educational institutions and municipal councils. The course will be held on Thursday, 4th July 2002 and will begin at 10.30 a.m. The venue is the Department of Science, Technology & Environment, Opp. Saligao Seminary, Saligao, which is supporting the programme. The morning session will be devoted to presentations made by two earthworm specialists who are actually working on the use of earthworms for processing domestic waste. After lunch, the participants will be taken to earthworm bins already in operation in Mapusa, Parra and Panaji. The visit is to demonstrate that the design of earthworm bins has been standardised and their operation is without any nuisance to the surrounding environments. The course will terminate after the visit to the Panaji earthworm bins. There will be no course fee but a registration fee of Rs.50 will be charged, which will be used largely for providing simple lunch and tea to the participants. The fee can be paid at the venue itself. Those who wish to register for the course should contact Nancy de Souza at the Goa Foundation on 263305/256479. Due to space restraints, the number is being restricted to the first 30 persons only.
