Daniel attended the meeting and briefed us about the relevant points.
The main issue concern the organization of the design workshops as some artisans are not motivated any more to take those classes. Some artisans seem doubtful that those workshops will be helpful for them. This is a surprise for us as one week ago the artisans seemed enthusiastic at this idea.
Sometimes poor people can be risk averse. If you start with just a few artisans, the others will probably follow once they see the early adopters getting good results.
ReplyDeletePatty said some women were self-conscious of their knitting/weaving skills and didn't want to practice in front of the others. Maybe that's it.
