Extending local artisan competence

Description

Extending local artisan competence involves systematically enhancing the skills, knowledge, and resources of craftspeople to improve product quality, innovation, and market access. This strategy addresses issues such as limited technical expertise, outdated methods, and restricted economic opportunities by providing targeted training, access to modern tools, and support for collaboration. The practical intent is to empower artisans to sustain livelihoods, preserve cultural heritage, and contribute to local economic development through increased competitiveness and self-reliance.
