Aim
Peace Handicrafts and Silks is an independent cooperative of landmine and polio disabled persons producing high quality handmade products for export around the world.
History & Philosophy
Peace Handicrafts and Silks was formed in February 2003 by a group of producers who received training at the Wat Than Skills Training Center for Landmine and Polio Disabled.
Peace contributes to social development by providing training and employment opportunities for landmine victims, polio disabled persons and the underprivileged. Their training has enabled them to become self-supporting, confident artisans who see themselves as individuals with abilities that contribute to the development of Cambodia.
All Peace products are made from traditional hand-woven silk, an ancient process untouched by industrial development. Peace prizes the high-quality of its products and each is carefully handcrafted by highly skilled artisans. Peace was awarded the 2004 UNESCO “Seal of Excellence” for Handicraft Products.
