Special Edition Cultural Treasures
We’re also excited to offer a limited collection of authentic, ethically-sourced items.
Support Palms and women of Timor Leste by buying traditional Tais products of Rede Soru Na’in, the new national association of Tais weavers which has been established to preserve cultural heritage and provide livelihood and empowerment opportunities for the weavers of Timor Leste.
TIMOR LESTE PRODUCTS
ATAURO ISLAND, TIMOR LESTE PRODUCTS
The finger puppets were made by the women’s group Boneca which has been operating on Atauro Island to provide training and livelihood for women and their families since 2006.
The coasters and small fridge magnets were made from recycled plastic. Waste management is a major challenge in Timor Leste. These are products of the small local NGO Ekipa Tasi Mos, who recycle bottle tops and collect data on plastic waste to feed into marine advocacy campaigns of the Tangaloan Blue Association.
PLEASE NOTE: The Special Edition Cultural Treasures are for sale and postage within Australia only, we have added a $10 flat rate cost to your purchase to help cover postage of your items.
