| Sumario: | Indigenous women have begun a process of organization from the valorization of the artisanal activity, based on
the elaboration of fabrics in wool Creole sheep of West of Formosa. The objective of this work is to identify and
valorize the wool resource from the involvement of women in the processes of selecting animals for ex situ
formation of a genetic nucleus where high quality individuals are evaluated and multiply. Surveys, visits and
selection of animals according to the criteria of the artisans were performed. Then they agreed with each
producer an exchange of animals for the genetic nucleus. During the first year these animals were used to teach
mechanical shearing courses to young people from farming families. Women's associations were not only a
participatory role but were permanent members of the process, evaluating the impacts on their own production
of interventions performed. There has been an immediate impact on the quality of the crafts and better market
penetration. Also, it has contributed to the visibility of women as a new social actor, with greater involvement
and political participation. The centers of the artisans are formed with 1200 women, who lead today innovation
processes in production, transforming the artisanal activity of economic activity associated with the old and the
older generations in an industry innovation and development involving youth and opens new perspectives for
working for indigenous communities in the region. |
