Published on Apr 22, 2025  

Twenty-one women from the southern part of Saint Lucia completed a five-day Basic Sewing Workshop sponsored by the Taiwan Technical Mission (TTM). The workshop ran from Monday, April 7 to Friday, April 11, 2025, and was held at the Papèl Craft Centre at Rudy John Beach Park in Laborie. 



A collaboration involving the Taiwan Technical Mission, Ministry of Commerce, Anse Kawet Crafters, and the Laborie/Augier Constituency Council, the workshop was an integral component of the Community Business Revitalization Project (CBRP), which was officially initiated in August 2023. 

The Basic Sewing Workshop aimed to foster a sense of community among participants, providing a space for individuals to share experiences, exchange ideas, and build lasting relationships. It is anticipated that this community and Anze Kawet Crafters support will assist in maintaining motivation and promote ongoing education following the conclusion of the course.
