Empowering Women Artisans, A Collaborative Journey with Vital Voices Global Partnership

We are happy to announce that we have a strategic partnership with Vital Voices Global Partnership as part of our commitment to promoting inclusivity and positive change within the traditional artisan community. With this partnership, we can take a big step toward strengthening our team and extending the application of our Traditional Artisan Inclusion model.

Vital Voices Global Partnership is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering women worldwide. With a focus on leadership development, Vital Voices works towards creating a global network of women change-makers, fostering collaboration, and providing resources for women to amplify their impact.

Our shared conviction that supporting women artisans is essential to promoting sustainable development and maintaining traditional craftsmanship is the foundation of our partnership with Vital Voices. Through utilizing Vital Voices’ proficiency in women’s empowerment and leadership cultivation, our objective is to augment our team’s competencies and expand our influence within the artisan community.

Key Objectives of the Partnership

  1. Capacity Building: Vital Voices will play a pivotal role in providing training and development opportunities for our team. Through mentorship programs and skill-building initiatives, we seek to strengthen our team’s capacity to effectively implement the Traditional Artisan Inclusion model.
  2. Ecosystem Connectivity: By aligning with Vital Voices, we gain access to a global ecosystem of support opportunities. This connectivity opens doors to collaborations, funding avenues, and partnerships that can further empower women artisans and enhance the sustainability of our initiatives.
  3. Women Empowerment Movement: The partnership aligns with the broader goal of contributing to the global women empowerment movement. Through joint initiatives and advocacy, we aim to create a ripple effect, inspiring positive change in the lives of women artisans and their communities.

We are thrilled about the positive changes the traditional artisan community will experience as we begin this collaborative journey with Vital Voices Global Partnership. We hope to preserve cultural heritage, promote economic independence, and make a lasting effect by pooling our resources and efforts.

As we develop and advance the Traditional Artisan Inclusion model, which empowers women artisans, keep an eye out for updates.

The African Continental Crafts are who we are.
