I’ve been compiling a list of places where you can order gifts that specificallysupport women artisans. I’m hoping that you’ll help me expand the list by suggesting more organizations and companies in the comments.
Another great website is Original-Women.com. OriginalWomen celebrates women artisans from around the world. Their products are beautiful.
Another resource is http://www.worldwomentradefair.com.They have links to grassroots women artisan entrepreneurs worldwide who sell their wares mostly in european festivals and tradefairs
Thanks for your additional suggestions, G. Feldman and Josepha!
Thanks for including us, Britt! We agree that there could be a lot more emphasis on the power of fair trade to economically empower women, most often the backbone of their communities.
