Handloom Design Centres later re-designated as Weavers’ Service Centre were established in 1956 with an aim to preserve Handloom Textiles. However, no efforts were made to upgrade / modernise these centres since their inception. Under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi Ji, Ministry of Textiles, Government of India has been working towards up-scaling design-oriented excellence at Weavers’ Service Centres (WSC) & facilitate weavers / other stakeholders with better services. As part of these efforts, Design & Resource Centres (DRC) are being established in WSCs through NIFT. These DRCs will upgrade WSCs, support weavers with design interventions & market linkages and allow NIFT students to learn intricacies of handloom traditions. #Vocal4Handmade
