Aaranyak trains women weavers in modern warping technology
Aaranyak organized a specialized training program for 20 women handloom weavers in the Koklabari area near Assam’s Manas National Park. The training focused on the application of warping drum technology to modernize traditional handloom practices.
Traditionally, weavers in the region have performed the warping process in open spaces or along roadsides, a method that is physically demanding and susceptible to weather conditions. The introduction of warping drums is intended to make the process more efficient, safer, and capable of being performed indoors.
The initiative aims to improve productivity, product quality, and income opportunities for women living in the fringe areas of the landscape. The training, conducted by professional handloom trainer Rekha Baro, provided hands-on instruction ranging from bobbin winding to the completion of the warping activity.
