NEWSLETTER 2 - JULY 2022

 CELEBRATING EARTH....
The day started with bright sunlight, feeling of freedom, peace and happiness around the universe. This was the dream dreamt few years ago after the realisation of we losing an essence of our festivals, our culture. Today, in the name of celebration, we are dumping the earth with all kinds of waste. Festival comes with the horror of overcrowded market, wet waste, dry waste, unnecessary gifts, delicacies overloaded with sugar and saturated oils. Do we really need all these to celebrate our festivals?
The dream of clean, generous, happy festival was conceptualised with humans. We named it “The Festival of Return Gifts” the festival were we give back our earth what she deserves. Loads of Saplings / Compost / Bioenzyme, smiles, soothing music, folk dances, handicrafts, local food. This was just the dream and we observed the reply of this dream in Bhoomi Habba, celebrated in Bangalore in June every year (Habba means Festival). This festival got inaugurated with the beating drums, energetic dance by all under the Tamarind tree.
There were many stalls selling handmade stuffs, an excellent way to promote earth friendly products, local economy and talents. Local songs complimented by dances was never ending fun. Leaving oneself and getting indulged in something heart loves is the way to true happiness.
The most energising activity was meeting few BEA members. This brings the feeling of family, oneness and support. Hopefully we could do similar event in different regions of India in the coming years.
WHEN WE MET....
Covid restrictions were high when BEA got registered, we being from different region of the country, we never got chance to meet physically. The entire work started virtually. It was definitely challenging to work virtually. when all of us have never met before.
First AGM was scheduled in Bangalore during the month of May 2022. The Venue was School of Ancient Wisdom, just an apt destination for our kind of work. Our Agenda was to streamline the entire functionality of this organisation. Many points got clarified and we got good direction to work upon.
BEA has three major areas of functions based on our objectives -

  • NETWORKING - Objective is to bring all the Bioenzyme makers come together, learn, collaborate and progress together.
Bioenzyme has recently picked up the popularity in our society, the journey from home to industry is surely a long journey. We started by teaching as many people as possible with the view of sustainable consumption. Making BE is just one aspect and using it to its entire potential is another aspect. In this journey, we realised, until and unless we standardise and optimise the process, it is difficult to use the potential of Bioenzyme to the fullest. To achieve this, the foremost requirement is getting everyone under one roof and create the network. This network would help each one of us to establish supply chain and reach out bigger market and create demand too. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF BIOENZYME INDUSTRY IN INDIA.
  • EDUCATION & RESEARCH- team are working on syllabus designing according to the requirement of universities.
.Keeping in view the National Education Policy 2020 envisaging multi-disciplinary, flexible curriculum, integrating vocational education with multiple entry and exit points with appropriate certification, we wish to propose two years skill based Master’s programme in the broad area of entrepreneurship in Bio-Enzymes management. The objective of the programme of studies is to provide required competency in skill set and knowledge to the candidates for becoming self-employed, entrepreneurialas well as employable. The students may exit the programme of studies after a three month certificate, six months advanced certificate, one year diploma and two year full master’s programme. 
  • The proposed programme of studies will require minimum in-house infrastructure and resources as the students will spend more than half of the period of studies with partner organizations and in the field for practical training of either product development or revival of fresh water bodies
RESTORATION - Earth is the only planet in our galaxy (as of our knowledge) has water. Water is the kind of blessing for all the living organism on this planet. Today, because of these toxic chemicals our water bodies are going through lots of stress and the stressors comes in form of lather, in form of colors and in form of fragrance. to please our senses. Today, when climate change is the most spoken topic, the impact is seen on degrading soil, polluted water either on surface or at the ground level, Air quality is just not breathable, earth surface is hotter than ever, speaks about the imbalances happening in and around us. Each one of us need to bring lot of small changes in our daily lives to see the larger impact. For more details on collaboration, do get in touch with our team.
.We will be working closely with local government to implement these projects. During our meeting we also met many change makers from the society.
This is the initiative towards capacity building for our industry. We need more youngster to join this program to not only strengthen our local economy but also work towards bringing the ecological balance. Today, our country needs Entrepreneurs to support and contribute to circular sustainable economy and ecology.

WAY FORWARD...

Her objective would be to pitch bioenzymes as a notable model for rural livelihood and its major role in utilizing organic waste in a meaningful way. Due to its innumerable applications of bio enzymes in various fields, including farming, livestock rearing, water treatment, sludge treatment plants this is an excellent candidate where it's a synergy of Agri industry and science.

Every little detail was mentioned by him with so much clarity, what we wish to do in this organisation. Though we wished for representatives from across the country to be on board, it was difficult for everyone to come together, as our country was resting during Covid.

An initiative that everyone can join. Every family can be a partner. Bioenzyme is such a liquid Its creation and use and promotion can be done by everyone easily. The properties of bioenzyme nurture nature, water resources and bring them to their natural condition. Making use of bioenzyme is a powerful means of giving something back to nature. increased proliferation of bioenzyme, This trend should go to the extent of public initiative and public participation, so there is a need to bring all the entrepreneurs related to the systems like production of bioenzyme, marketing etc. on one platform.

Bioenzyme is versatile. There is a need for research on bioenzyme. Its properties take us towards chemical free life. The use of chemicals is becoming a curse in our everyday life. Water and earth are in anguish over the use of our chemicals. There is a great need to save, preserve it for our future generations. BEA is a product of this need.
