Empower Afghan Artisans - Invest in Small Businesses.
Demand for unique, handmade products is growing fast, worldwide. The crafts sector represents a huge opportunity for Afghan artisans. This is their chance to run their own businesses and to pursue larger markets, while supporting families and communities. Even those who never went to school can be successful. Skills are passed down through generations -- from mothers to daughters, from fathers to sons. Still, even talented artisans lack access to buyers. The problem? Isolation, lack of consumer information, insufficient business knowledge, inadequate product design, and, most crucially, limited credit and financing options.
This campaign is part of Far & Wide Collective’s efforts to bring more attention to what small craft businesses really need and give it to them. Our objective is to help grow small businesses and as a result include a whole new segment of artisans and producers from developing economies into the global economy.
