SRSO signed a MoU with SITCO for Identification and Survey of Traditional Crafts persons in the Camps, whose livelihoods and craft had been affected by the floods.
A total of 1,150 traditional craftspersons
were identified in 50 camps across the districts of Jacobabad, Ghotki, Shikarpur, Sukkur and Khairpur,
and were provided financial and social assistance by SITCO in enhancing their skill and providing them with incentive based
work orders.
A total of 50 master trainers (one in each camp)
were selected, they underwent intensive training to monitor the progress of the group and assist the
group in skill development. Under the project each craftsperson was given an order to make a specific
product, they were supplied with quality raw material, according to their individual skills, and these
products were then displayed at an exhibition in Karachi.
