dc.descriptionRural Immersion Project – Area Divrala, District: Sikar, State: Rajasthan
dc.description.abstractJaipur Rugs Foundation (JRF) was founded in 2004 by Nand Kishore Chaudhary under the Rajasthan Public Trust Act. The overall work mandate of JRF is to reach out to remote rural areas and establish bonds with the village communities, enabling them to start weaving not just rugs but also their own lives. Our project involved staying with the local weavers (8 days) and observing their daily routine. We got the opportunity to interact with 20-30 weavers associated with the company and we tried to understand existing as well as potential hindrances and problems. Our findings were very specific yet very significant. On the basis of our interactions and the available resources we have tried to come up with pragmatic solutions to the problems faced by the weavers of village Divrala. The documentation and understanding of the village community required us to carry out an ethnography and qualitative research. Throughout the project, the approach followed was that of Standpoint Theory, i.e. the focus was on letting the weavers talk rather than talking on behalf of them, as is often the case with the mainstream narrative that tends to ignore the voice of the marginalized in favour of those in power.
