Artists for Change

Launching a new program of collaboration between UAE artists and underprivileged artisans in Afghanistan, the new programme called Artist’s For Change, aims to raise awareness of the plight of disadvantaged artisans, as well as promote their talent and capabilities.

The six artists invited to participate in the Artist’s For Change program will graciously donate their artworks to be woven into hand-knotted carpets, providing employment to the artisans and a range of social benefits as provided by FBMI.

FBMI Fatima Bint Mohamed Bin Zayed Initiative

The Fatima Bint Mohamed Initiative is the UAE’s very own carpet production and community development program empowering more than 4,000 female artisans in the hand-knotted carpet industry.
