K2Crafts is the online marketplace for the Cottage Industry-Global Market
(CIGM) project. The project works with women¹s craft cooperatives in the
Kangra District of Himachal Pradesh, India to support capacity building and
local development. This team effort involves students and faculty from the
Communication, Culture & Technology (CCT) program at Georgetown University,
local non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and government officials.

K2Crafts shawls are hand-woven and of the highest quality. The shawls come
in a variety of colors, including natural vegetable dyes, and intricate
designs. The cooperative women weave wool and angora shawls and scarves,
inspired by the rich history of artisans in this region of India. By
purchasing a K2Crafts shawl, you would be encouraging the entrepreneurial
spirit of the artisans, providing opportunities for them to acquire
important skills and to improve their standard of living.
