Livelihood and women’s empowerment
2017-18: baseline survey and mobilisation of artisans. 2019: first artisan training camp at Mendki. Today: a full cluster of 400+ women.
Our livelihood work began in 2017-18 with a baseline survey and mobilisation of artisans in Badi block of Raisen district, supported by the Ministry of Textiles.
It led to the Raisen Zari Zardosi Silaai Kadhaai Cluster at village Mendki, approved under the SFURTI scheme in January 2020 for 418 women artisans.
