Kajsiab began many years ago with just a few wooden planks to show visitors the unique handmade artwork the women from the mountains make. Soon we had a real shop to provide food and housing for the women and children at Kajsiab shelter, right at the Daauw Home Restaurant.

A few years later we built the Women's Workplace, where the local women make embroideries and other artworks, using their traditional skills and adding a modern touch.  Many workshops have been done in the past years and eventually drawing, making notebooks, painting and making embroideries are the workshops that are successful, not only by selling them but also in making them.  The Women's Workplace is also doing informal computer classes, English conversation classes and informal talks about sexual education, raising children, healthy equal personal relationships and hygiene.

The women in the villages make unique products of which each item is different.

The women of Kajsiab Creations can generate a sufficient income with their work if you help them buying their products and save their traditional skills!
