In today’s episode CYHU expands on the definition of activism as we embark on a season-long theme, by highlighting the sector of artisans and their work. Integral to many developing economies and to consumers in the global north, artisanal work has persevered as a gateway to culture preservation and an income opportunity for the majority of women that work within the sector. We are so excited to share this interview with Arushi Chowdhury Khanna, CEO and founder of the social enterprise LoomKatha. Join us as we chat about the origin of loom Katha, the history of India's handloom sector and the importance of highlighting artisans and “handicrafts” in international development.
