Artisan Profile
Rural, low-income Takeo Province is home to the Cambodian women's silk weaving cooperative. Over 500 weavers from seven communities work with them. Mulberry trees create cocoons from silkworms, which are then harvested by 350 local farmers. Handloomed pieces of art are made from the silk thread produced from cocoons.While empowering women and promoting economic growth in remote locations, this social venture aims to preserve Cambodia's traditional silk-weaving culture. It is a historic craft that is losing out, but a weaving cooperative is teaching newer generations how to keep it alive in their communities. Women in the region who would otherwise be compelled to seek work in neighbouring nations are given the opportunity to work and get training in the process. Human trafficking, sexual abuse, and harsh working circumstances are common dangers for those who have been separated from their family and have little education. Women who join a weaving cooperative get financial security and the flexibility to work from home while still taking care of their families.
