INSPIRED PERU
Located in: Peru
Artisan cooperative Inspired Peru recognizes that women are the primary beacons of cultural transmissions. The majority of the artisans are widows and heads of household from indigenous communities in the Peruvian highlands. Ethically sourced, local alpaca wool is used to craft products that celebrate their heritage. The artisans generally work from the comfort of their home; however, they also have access to a communal workshop in Lima. They are empowered to transmit their traditional skills to future generations while expanding their business and leadership skills.
