The collective represents more than 45 artisans in seven villages and strives to encourage sustainable practices that can help create a better way of life for the artisans. Since it’s sometimes hard to earn a living with pottery, the team behind the collective fears that at least a third of the villages still working with clay will abandon their craft over the next decade. However, they're constantly organizing workshops, courses, and exchanges to help potters develop their skills and knowledge so that they can find success in the marketplace.
