CKC is honored to be selected as one of the outstanding initiatives under the “Project on Supporting Women-Led Green Initiatives” (PWG), implemented by Oxfam in Vietnam. PWG is a key component of the “Women-led Green Partnership Programme” funded by the European Union (EU), which aims to promote women’s access to decent employment and entrepreneurial opportunities within the green and circular economy, while also strengthening their role in policy-making.

Through the initiative “Developing a women-led, eco-friendly craft village product supply chain serving service and tourism activities in Phong Dinh Ward, Hue City”, CKC focuses on connecting and empowering women from various groups to build supply chains for handicraft products that are culturally rich, practical, aesthetically refined, and environmentally sustainable.

This initiative continues CKC’s mission to enhance the roles and capacities of local women, while promoting sustainable livelihoods through the development and production of craft products for tourism, textiles, and services. We believe that multi-faceted collaboration among local women, government, communities, and women-led businesses is key to building inclusive and sustainable supply chains that drive the green transition at the local level.

The active and meaningful participation of local women is necessary to advancing a green economy, while preserving and promoting the unique cultural heritage of Hue’s traditional craft villages.

CKC remains committed to being a trusted connector and companion in the journey of women’s empowerment and sustainable community development.
