Threads of Life works directly with over 1000 women in more than 35 cooperatives across Indonesia’s Islands from Timor to Kalimantan. The common question among these cooperatives is “How do we maintain our culture and identity and make a living at the same time?” Threads of Life connects weavers and artisans to the wider world, helping rural communities take advantage of market access and develop their independent businesses for growth, environmental sustainability, and cultural integrity.
