Threads of Life Dye Studio

We work directly with over 1,200 women in more than 35 groups on 12 Indonesian islands from Kalimantan to Timor.

We empower women’s enterprises and put money directly into women’s hands where it best ensures their households’ welfares.

Our cultural and technical support moves weavers to great pride of ownership, inspiring the extraordinary quality of their work.

Dye plant use perpetuates a sustainable relationship with the land, and helps a community prioritize conservation.
