How We Work

Mobilization Cluster Development

After initiating a base level survey we created a need analysis report. With the help of that report we mobilized our beneficiaries from Joint Forest Management Committee (JFMC) areas of Sundarban Tiger Reserve. We have also created small clusters based on different projects.

Capacity Building Training

We provided different skill development training support to the selected beneficiaries. After the workshop we provided additional training support on the quality measurements, production mapping and product pricing.

Market Linkage and Sustainability

We will act as the bridge between the great traditional artists, performing arts experts to the global market with providing them the support for market access
