Coir Atlas as an employment generation technology
Unemployment is a chronic problem in rural areas. This is especially so for women. An estimated 20%

With appropriate training, women can easily learn to make Coir Atlas units. Thus, by switching to Coir Atlas
for superior performance, manufacturers or businesses can also play a significant role in generating employment.
