about the artisan

kitenge cotton is a common material used throughout African culture. this collective was originally established by 18 women and offers vocational training in sewing while also addressing gender-based violence and inequality to women in need. the Collective aims to empower women through various training programs and life skills, strengthen its own capacity, and promote community-based tourism. it provides education in literacy, English, computer skills, and handicrafts, along with workshops on gender-based violence. the Collective now employs over 50 women to create accessories, clothing, and home decor. The profits from sales support the collective’s initiatives and ensure fair wages for each of the artisans.

 

Testimonials

“

One little world fair trade is amazing, I absolutely love everything in this store. It's my go to for gifts and extra nice things for my home. Kudos to Jodie and her team/family for creating such a warm, thoughtful and positive presence in our neighborhood. I learn something new every time I go and I can't wait to attend some of the live workshops!

“

I've bought a few things from One Little World that are used and enjoyed regularly in my home (exp: felt mistletoe decoration, dryer ball). Both are still in very good condition even after years of use. I also appreciate having this option to support more civil and dignified working conditions for people who create these products.
