organisations supporting textiles and local traditions

Picture
There are many small humanitarian non-government organisations (NGO’s) operating at the grass-roots level of communities throughout Asia. Whilst the big International Aid organisations and large NGO’s operate by sourcing corporate and Government funding and have a large media presence, there are many, many community humanitarian welfare projects which are run by local people for the benefit of local people especially those who are promoting and reviving traditional textiles.  

Most of these projects do not receive funding or recognition for the work they do. By highlighting the work down by these smaller organisation its hoped that it can assist in developing sustainable funding them. Some of the organisations include:


  • Houey Hong Centre - vocational training centre for women - Vientiane, Laos
  • Ok Pop Tok - supports many rural villages and provides a weaving training centre -  Luang Prabang, Laos
  • TAEC - Traditional Arts & Ethnic Centre - A must for every visitor to Lunag Prabang, Laos
  • Institute for Khmer Traditional Textiles (IKTT), Siem Reap Cambodia
  • Buddhism and Society Development Association, Kampong Cham Province, Takeo Province & Kandal Province, Cambodia
  • Ma Te Sai - From the Village for the Village - Luang Prabang
  • True Colour, Vientiane, Laos
  • CraftLink - Hanoi, Vietnam
  • Sapa O'Chau - Sapa Vietnam
  • Lao Disabled Women's Development Centre - Vientiane, Laos
