PEOPLE OF THE SUN is a nonprofit organisation registered and based in Malawi, who mobilise rural and urban informal artisan initiatives in the country, (in the sector of furniture and home accessories), in order to raise the profile of locally made products on a national and international level and create economic, social and cultural value to Malawi, while lifting the producers/artisans out of poverty.
We spot and partner with artisans, with extra-terrestrial smiles and unique skills, who use their indigenous knowledge and natural resources to make bespoke products by hand. Then, we connect them with business training, design development and the marketplace.
The
caring & style
movement is about
making stylish choices,
while helping
artisans in Malawi
improve their lives
and move out of
poverty.
Our mission is to create opportunities for low-income artisans in Malawi to build sustainable businesses, inspired by their indigenous knowledge and traditions.
