Tara Projects, India
Shaista making sequined coin purses

Since the early 1970’s Tara Projects has been providing support services to the production and marketing of handicrafts on Fair Trade principles, while addressing community development needs of economically disadvantaged crafts persons. Tara Projects funds and maintains a number of non-formal schools and training centeres along with several adult literacy centers. They also spearhead campaigns against child labor, illiteracy, unfair trade practices, AIDS, and women’s issues.

Artisan story – Shaista

Shaista was born into an orthodox Muslim family in Old Delhi, India. This traditional community is ultra-conservative and it was difficult for her to find work without discrimination. With the help of two of her siblings she started a self-help group and began working on handicrafts for Tara Projects. Gradually, under the leadership of Shaista, their social, economic, educational, and cultural standards have improved, and there are now 25 women in the group. Everyone is receiving wages in accordance with their experience and skill level. The workers all have health care and work in a clean, well-ventilated facility. “We can live the life we want, without cultural restraints. We feel empowered, like there’s nothing we can’t do.”
