Cooking Up Confidence & Independence

 Resource Centre conducted an #entrepreneurship #skills development training for #girls with #intellectual #disabilities, focusing on cookery for rice-based dishes.

Led by #Manique Gunaratne and  Dale Ramanathan, the training equipped participants with practical skills while building confidence, self-reliance, and pathways to independent #livelihoods.

Our heartfelt thanks to Dinusha Wickramasekera and the Late  Mahila Wickramasekera for generously providing the kitchen facilities that made this training possible.

Together, we continue to empower #girls with #disabilities to believe in their abilities and build independent futures.
