dc.description.abstract | Khadi is one of the oldest heritage crafts of Bangladesh. The fabric has stood the test of time
simply because of its versatility, simplicity and climate-responsive nature. Unfortunately, the
existence of this craft has become increasingly endangered by the emergence of cheaper, yet
lower quality industrially-produced fabrics. While the new fabric are more popular, Khadi is
richer, more context-appropriate and more ecofriendly. This paper endeavors to explore the
possible courses of action that can be taken to revive a fading Bangladeshi craft- the craft of
Khadi. This paper also tries to explore if design intervention and strategic institutionalization
can help in the intricate process of craft revival, development and expansion | en_US |
