RDA BKP completed the first embroidery workshop cycle for 26 participants under the Danube Crafts project. The focus was on valorizing the famous Montenegrin stitch and empowering women economically. Due to high interest, a new training cycle is planned, alongside creating souvenir prototypes for tourism.
Women and Local Development
How to Preserve Traditional Crafts
RDA BKP hosted a meeting with Romanian partners to discuss craft revitalization via Commheritour and DanubeCrafts. Embroidery was chosen as the lead activity for souvenir development. The goal is to train local women and adapt traditions to the market, empowering the community and preserving cultural heritage.
Invisible Women of Montenegro
We are proud to present the publication “Invisible Women of Montenegro,” created as part of a project supported by the Democracy Commission Small Grants Program of the U.S. Embassy. Although our initial vision was focused exclusively on highlighting successful examples in rural tourism to motivate future entrepreneurs, our work in the field led us to an important change of course.
