Project Brief Description: | The proposition aims to address thefollowing critical issues related to the bamboo-sector in the region.
• Majority of the population involve in the handicrafts sector depends on bamboo-based enterprises for their livelihood • EDII survey determined that in Agartala Bamboo Cluster (covering two districts) alone, more than 3500 household units are engaged in bamboo crafts-making, and employs more than 3000 women • Climate changes have adversely affected bamboo production in the region • Traditional skills in bamboo craftsmanship are getting lost; skill restoration is needed • Lack of database about availability of biodiversity, raw materials, artisans, entrepreneurship, MSMEs, services providers is creating a bottleneck and aggravating existing issues • Lack of collective platform and institutionalised delivery mechanism of services (technology, business, etc) is squeezing the potential of the sector and is decelerating growth • Empowerment and participation in the labour force of women and backward classes remain unrecognised • High exposure to economic shocks due to lack of income surety over any given time-period • Lack of percolation and uptake of technological solutions and innovations in the sector due to the geographical remoteness of the bamboo clusters in the proposed region • Lack of capacity building of local institutions to address the sector specific problems of the region |
