A charitable trust based in Maheshwar, WomenWeave is a unique approach to rural social entrepreneurship with women at the helm.
The School implements a model of learning that is global, scalable and designed specifically for young handloom artisans, making entrepreneurial education a catalyst for change.
The mission of The Handloom School is to inspire young handloom artisans with a creative and practical multidisciplinary learning experience.
Through The Handloom School, WomenWeave aims to furnish young weavers with the skillset and competencies necessary to operate in a mercurial national and international business landscape, to interface with remunerative high-end markets and to weave superior fabrics for up-market clients, eventually maturing into weaver entrepreneurs in their own right.
