Grassroots Leadership Development

Leadership inherently means to be responsible for everyone working with you and lead by example. Our Leadership Development program identifies individuals with an ability to find creative solutions and nurture them, while also promoting all the necessary skills to become independent in their own way.

Due to lack of exposure rural women have spent most of their time doing household chores, so building confidence is the primary challenge.
Through these programs, Artisans are educated about the entire carpet supply chain, customers, waste reduction, taking ownership and organizational values alongside learning the art of rug weaving.

Artisan Engagement Program

Artisan Engagement Program

The Artisan engagement program was created to nurture the creative capacity of our artisans and thereby empower them to fulfill their aspirations.

Bunkar Sakhi and Katwari Sakhi Training Programs

‘Bunkar’ and ‘Katwari’ mean weaver and spinner respectively, and we combine the two words to show the origin and craft, alongside their unique leadership style. ‘Sakhi’ in Hindi means companion, and it’s how we refer to our rural leaders.

Self Management

“Be your own leader.“
– NK Chaudhary

To unleash entrepreneurial creativity in the artisans and to improve the challenges faced due to dependency on one another we implemented self management in the grassroots of rural India.

Partner with us

We aim towards creating a collaboration which uplifts both our Artisans and you. With every partnership we move a step closer in making an ecosystem which has all the resources from door-to-door health facilities to stable income, and to an independent life.
