Skills and knowledge are the driving forces of growth and social development of any country. The economy becomes more productive, innovative and competitive through the existence of more skilful human potential. Rural artisans are the most vibrant and dynamic segment as well as potentially most vulnerable human resource. Through this initiative, the importance of skill building for underprivileged, marginalised groups of artisans has been addressed, as it is a powerful weapon against poverty, hunger and rural development and empowerment.
THORI promotes traditional and rural crafts by developing enabling ecosystems for rural artisans. We facilitate opportunities for skill refinement; render support for sourcing of raw materials and support design and production of relevant merchandise. We ensure dignified and consistent livelihood generation through assured buy-backs and centralised branding; marketing activities. With relevant touch points across the value chain, we develop viable and resilient livelihood models for cottage industries.
We plan product sale towards the artisan welfare fund for addressing relevant socio-economic needs of beneficiary communities. The handicraft industries comes under the unrecognised village economy of India, and a small part of the rural population is engaged with small industries like handlooms, handicraft & other traditional produce. Basic idea behind THORI is to blend the creativity of rural artisans and bring the finest handicrafts and art to you.
