Women help support their families by weaving and selling traditional artisan goods.
At 8 a.m. we push off to visit a handful of communities working with handicrafts and raising small animals, which serve as both an alternate source of income and protein for families. Rain begins hammering down as we arrive at the Chachi community of Loma Linda. In communities like Loma Linda, women play a new and important role in providing alternative income for their families. The women in Loma Linda use the rampira plant to weave baskets for sale. CARE also is soliciting the globally recognized green seal certification for these and numerous other handicraft products to sell to environmentally-conscious consumers around the world.
