Traditonal Weaving

Traditional weaving is the oldest method of making a living for women and girls in Africa and in Bwindi. It remains a leading source of income to our girls and women at our center as the sell them out to tourists who visit us. This is aimed at increasing income generation to individuals and families of our economically vulnerable girls and women.

Here is a video showing how a woman weaves a lovely little basket. You can see how much work goes into it.
