Conversations about Craft & Social Enterprise with The Décologist

In our conversation with Marion and Hendrikje, we learn how the crafting process brings new life to old garments, and how this collaboration not only activates a process of recycling and renewing of materials, but also a cultural and social exchange through a sharing of stories and memories. This exchange from consumer to producer highlights the artisan's role of bringing stories and memories to life through weaving.

Robin Seyfert is the founder of Basha Enterprises, a social enterprise working throughout Bangladesh to support women who have been victim of trafficking or are at risk of exploitation. Basha provides secure employment through crafts which is complemented by a 'wrap-around' programme of social support services to assist the women in rebuilding their lives with dignity.
