Priyanshi Patley and Kakoli Das

Abstract: 

The Chandrapur, Chhattisgarh silk handloom cluster strengthens the community by setting up methods to support local craftsmen. Economic expansion, social empowerment, and craft preservation are the main indicators of the cluster's success. Implementation involves assessing the level of expertise of the artisans and offering financial assistance, education, and infrastructure development. The cluster concentrates on talent development, market connections, and design innovation to improve the community. The primary design concept draws influence from the local culture and environment and mixes traditional themes with modern aesthetics. The cluster's all-encompassing strategy protects history, enhances livelihoods, and establishes Chandrapur as a center for luxurious silk handicrafts.
