The Re-Crafts project, promoted by Rosto Solid\u00e1rio and focused on strengthening vocational education and supporting craft and upcycling<\/em> entrepreneurs within the cultural and green tourism value chain, recently brought together representatives of partner organisations from Portugal, Spain, Mozambique, Angola and Cape Verde for its second international meeting, held in Mindelo, Cape Verde.<\/p>\n

During the meeting, partners shared the challenges encountered since the beginning of the project and defined the next goals. They also visited several local artisans, artists and craft businesses.<\/p>\n

One of the places visited was Quintal das Artes in Mindelo, Cape Verde, a cultural and artistic space featuring workshops, exhibitions and a strong sense of community.<\/p>\n

A total of 12 upcycling techniques were also selected, which will subsequently be implemented with target groups in each participating country, including vulnerable groups.<\/p>\n

These techniques will also be used during the training of trainers, which will take place in Portugal and bring together all project partners and participating artisans.<\/p>\n

A focus group with artisans and tourism establishments will also be organised to provide a basis for developing the project\u2019s Value Chain Model.<\/p>\n
