TEXTO:
A new leaf – Egypt
Egyptian foundation El Nafeza was established in 2007 to revive traditional papermaking in Egypt — partly as a way
of getting rid of agricultural wastes that are typically burned, resulting in choking black clouds. El Nafeza organizes
workshops in papermaking for disadvantaged young people (80 to 90 percent of its employees are deaf and mute). The
Foundation has also established specialized training centers to teach the art and technique of high quality paper making
[5] from rice husks, Nile water lilies, and banana stalks. The handmade paper products are exhibited and sold both within
Egypt and internationally.
