Summary
We are starting a weaving school in Niamey, Niger. This year we plan to construct a large open shed to use as the classroom, acquire 10 traditional looms and to give 10 young people 3 months of training in literacy and 4 months of training in a traditional weaving style known as tera-tera. Our goal is to begin a project that will give young people the skills to earn a living and to preserve a traditional Nigerien craft.
