\"How<\/p>\n

S<\/span>under Rang, a unique initiative, is empowering livelihoods of rural women in Rajasthan through arts and crafts.<\/p>\n

When we were exploring offbeat areas in rural Rajasthan in India, one thing we noticed in common in almost all the villages was that most of the women were confined to household work. Rarely did we see them go out to earn in a patriarchal society deeply influenced by ancient culture and traditions. However, the scene was quite different\u00a0at Chandelao, a quaint little village located 40 km. east of Jodhpur.<\/p>\n

Sunder Rang,\u00a0an initiative by\u00a0Chandelao Vikas Sanstha (Chandelao Development Organization) in collaboration with Basecamp Foundation of Norway, is empowering a lot of women in Chandelao to earn a livelihood by making traditional arts and crafts, along with promoting traditional crafts local to Rajasthan.<\/p>\n
