Tejer conocimientos para lograr un textil que traspase fronteras Weaving knowledge Weaving knowledge to create a textile that crosses borders

Abstract

Thanks to an invitation from Colombia Productiva, part of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry, and Tourism of Colombia, researchers from UPB (Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana) united their expertise to strengthen the productive chain of three Indigenous communities affected by armed conflict: the Kankuamos, Arhuacos, and Wiwas. The goal is to create a finished textile product that connects with brands and designers, standing out within the fashion system.
