Women from the Rupununi village of Shulinab are drying mangoes and other fruit which previously used to go to waste.

Violet Eusebio, Chair-person of the Shulinab Women’s Group told the Department of Public Information (DPI), in a recent interview, that the project began in May 2018 when the group restarted, and it was discovered that two dryers were the only assets they possessed.
