Traditional Embroidery promoting the Culture of the North West Region Cameroon "Tugho"
In the
context of the North west and south west region crises have caused a lot of
disaster and closing down of shops. A lot of persons with disabilities in the
domain of arts and crafts now work in their homes. Security challenges do not
give them access to training centers. Also, mobility challenges and
displacement stand as a barrier to their business activities. We experience many
days of lock down causing limited days to access centers.
The goal of
my initiative is “To empowerment and enhance skills of women and girls with
disabilities in arts and craft to promote culture and peace building in the North
West Region of Cameroon.
To achieve
this goal, I will use the following strategies;
a) Identify women and girls with
disabilities in the domain of craft
b) Creating a friendly/safe space for
empowerment.
