關於棉樂悅事工坊
使用自然的原料,透過尼泊爾村落婦女的手作,創造對環境、女性及家庭友善的永續商品,讓消費者有機會在消費的同時,支持尼泊爾村落婦女就業及響應永續生活方式、創造環境、女性與家庭,三環節共善的美好未來。
同時『棉樂』,也代表著用天然栽種的棉花,製作成讓女性可以快樂使用的布衛生棉。
『悅事』,代表著女性月經歷程轉化為身心喜悅的過程,認知到環保正向月經的重要性,喚醒女性自主意識,慢慢的讓更多的好、喜悅的事發生。
棉樂悅事的英文名 Dharti Mata Sustainable workshop
Dharti Mata在尼泊爾文及梵文中意旨Mather Earth,『大地母親』
母親是孕育生命的大地、賦予生命意義的靈魂!
母親與自然是不斷給予、不求回報的象徵!
但現今的社會,對於女性及自然予取予求,
造成長久以來女性與自然界遭受到破壞與威脅!
Dharti Mata Sustainable workshop的成立,
提醒我們要喚醒女性自主權及喚醒大眾對於自然界的愛,
讓女性與自然界的能量與資源能形成循環,滋養大地、滋養人心。

Dharti Mata
In Sanskrit, Dharti Mata means “Mother Earth”
Mother Earth nurtures the whole creation.
However, modern society makes endless demands on women and nature,

and a love and care for Mother Earth.
