- EL CAMINO : French association which help Mexican textile workers: Access to the association’s web site
The association « EL CAMINO » is animated since 1996 by a group of french designers who bring their knowledge to women from five maya’s communities of textile workers from Chiapas, in south-east Mexico.
The association « EL CAMINO DE LOS ALTOS » which was created in 2009, gives to the textile workers a place where they can be train, where they can show their value and provide the ancestral art of weaving, where they can professionalize their activities and develop the creation and the commercialization of it. It’s also a united place which is contributing to the improvement of the workers’ living conditions and which brings opportunities to them.
