A total of <strong style=\"font-weight: 600;\">27 women<\/strong> applied, confirming that there is still a powerful drive for preserving traditional skills within the community.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 60px; height: 2px; background: #0c8044; margin: 45px 0;\"><\/div>\n<h4 style=\"font-size: 1.2rem; font-weight: 600; color: #1a1a1a; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 18px; letter-spacing: -0.005em;\">Heritage and Future Vision<\/h4>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 24px;\">The introductory session focused on the story of traditional embroidery in Montenegro \u2013 its historical and cultural significance, motifs, and the tools required for the craft.
