In connection with the statewide cleaning campaign under Haritha Keralam Mission, Suchitwa Mission has proposed a platform for exchanging reusable goods and products. The concept ‘Swap-Shop’, aims at providing a public system for exchanging reusable goods that could be useful for others.
Local self-governance bodies have the primary responsibility for arranging the functions of swap-shops, which are being set up with active public participation at 93 municipalities. As part of the campaign, drop facility centres that would collect and store the permissible items from public have been put up at various places by local self-governing bodies.
The collected materials would be segregated and displayed in stalls.
Suchitwa Mission has given necessary instructions to set up swap-shops in an attractive manner. Municipal Corporations and other local bodies have been asked to plan in advance for the initiative.
