Abstract
Kumbalangi, an island village on the outskrits of Cochin city, was selected as one of the model villages by the Kerala Government in 2003. The Kumbalangi integrated tourism village project is intended to transform the hamlet into a model fishing village and tourism spot. The project aims to create job opportunities for the villagers, while also ensuring that the tourists experience real village life. Recognising the challenges and responsibilities normally faced by tourist destinations especially with respect to waste generation, the Panchayath has taken serious efforts in waste management. During the last financial year, the Panchayath initiated a cleanliness drive “Shuchithwa theeram 2017-18” as part of the Haritha Keralam Mission of the State Government, which has helped the village to look clean and attract tourists.
