Using technology and people management skills, read how Mansoor ismaking waste collection a well organized profession. Thanks to his efforts,Bengaluru now sees ragpickers with ID cards, fresh uniforms and betterincomes.

The waste pickers community is veryenterprising. If their entrepreneurial skills arechannelized and steered in the right direction,they can work wonders, says Mansoor. Notonly will this put fellow waste pickers on theright path of hard work and integrity, but it willalso be an opportunity to include them in themainstream economy.

He believes that one man can only do so much to solve the garbage crisesof the city. The idea is to involve the entire community in problem solving.On the one hand, Bengaluru citizens are keenly looking for a solution to thegarbage menace, while on the other hand there is tremendous energy to beunlocked in the waste picker community who can come to their rescue.

Reaching to this scale wasnt easy for him. He had no stable source ofincome to support the operations or pay salary to the workers he hadhired. HasiruDala came to the rescue and helped him stabilize operations.Gradually, I got hold of things and today this centre is self-sustainable, hesays.

Waste collection should not be consideredas petty work. Thanks to HasiruDala, peopledont look down upon my work & have respectfor what I do. HasiruDala has also provided IDcards to fellow waste pickers and a gooduniform. It feels like we are all a part ofsomething good. he says.

Talking about the impact of his work, he has seen a tremendous positivechange in the lives of the sorters and his team mates.

People would sometimes be very careless whiledisposing the waste. They would mix wet andreject waste also in the dry category. This madeour centre an unhygienic place to work. We laterstopped collecting waste if it wasnt segregatedproperly.

Thanks to his hard work in spreading awareness, 75 percent of hiscustomers are now segregating at source.

Mansoor segregates the waste in over 72 different categories.

Apart from altering peoples mindset towards waste, Mansoor has made animpact in his work force as well. We learned that one of his new recruits,Arunachalam, who was a waste picker and an alcoholic, also had anunattended serious leg injury. From the day he has started working withthe team, his condition has improved significantly, he earns more thanwhat he used to and is now on a healthier diet towards recovery.

Though I am still learning, I have realized thattechnology has a role to play. I Got Garbageteam has developed android apps for managingour daily operations making it much easier thanever before. It helps us keep track of waste pick-

Mansoor has been try ing to make waste collect ion moreorganised.

Currently, waste pickers are at the end of thechain, scavenging for waste on the street. Theyventure out on roads during odd hours of theday in hope of getting sufficient waste to makeends meet. We intend to place them at thebeginning of the waste supply chain, i.e. at thesource, like your house and mine, saysGambhir.

He envisions a day when waste pickers will turn into waste managers,
