Craftizen Foundation launches Petalists Day on 19 January 2026, aligning with International Flower Day. Rooted in the Petalists Livelihood Programme, which creates dignified livelihoods for adults with intellectual disabilities through skilling in recycled temple flowers and handcrafted products, the initiative builds on Craftizen’s network of 100+ partner organisations across India.
Petalists Day creates a shared, national platform for visibility and participation—bringing together photographs, products, stories, and people from across this collective. It strengthens connections between partners and makes visible the creativity, work, and everyday lives of adults with intellectual disabilities.
At its heart, Petalists Day is about recognition, dignity, and belonging—built through collaboration, visibility, and community.
