February 2025 – Taaleem Foundation has proudly revitalized the traditional craft of Kashmiri embroidery, reconnecting artisans from Azad Jammu and Kashmir with their rich cultural heritage and equipping them with sustainable livelihood opportunities.
Across all AJK Skill centers, artisans received intensive training to master intricate Kashmiri embroidery techniques, refine artistic detailing, and modernize color combinations—while preserving the authenticity of this treasured art. On February 13, they proudly completed their first assignment, showcasing their exceptional craftsmanship and earning well-deserved cash incentives. This milestone was celebrated with encouragement from Ms. Noreen, Chief Operating Officer, and Mr. Tahir Malik, Director Skills.
With 50 artisans now empowered and economically uplifted, this initiative not only preserves a once-neglected cultural legacy but also creates a sustainable platform for future growth. Taaleem Foundation remains committed to fostering resilience, heritage, and skill development for lasting impact.
