Announcing with great pride @Beyonce's daughter Blue Ivy Carter wearing an authentic Kenyan beadwork necklace & headpiece designed by @queenofraw partner @beadworkskenya. We are thrilled to join them & @wfen on this journey into a #sustainable fashion future!
Great insights from Group 1 of our delegates helping @beadworkskenya brainstorm their sales model for international markets.
Key ideas:
1. Market beyond conservation circles & organizations
2. Differentiate the quality of material glass vs. plastic beads

"I like BeadWORKS because the work we do is done in our own homes, it is not like other jobs people have where they cannot be at home. We earn when we are at home" - Pamela, NgareNdare Conservancy https://t.co/Nj9YaVWvad
