Training in Looms and Clothing
The project is based on promoting the recovery of the “art of the looms” and teaching new generations what would have been lost in terms of natural fabrics and dyeing. On the other hand, we will teach them to make products, with good finishes so that they have a good commercial value, and thus support Fair Trade, taking the product to the final consumer.
