2021
Transparent Gullak operates as a tech platform that fosters an ecosystem for Indian ethnic handicraft businesses in tribal and rural communities. It p Read morerovides support capital, including equity and debt-free finance through donations, while expert volunteers guide artisans in maintaining product quality and timely delivery. Furthermore, Transparent Gullak facilitates market linkage, connecting high-quality Indian ethnic products with global markets, thus aiming to generate and enhance sustainable livelihoods for these communities. The organisation's journey began in 2021 when a Mother-Daughter duo discovered the unique skills and craftsmanship of tribal and rural communities across India. Recognizing the potential of these communities to offer diversity to the world, they understood the need for support capital and market linkage to achieve self-sustainability. Inspired by stories like Poonam's resilience in Punjab, Sharada's determination in Maharashtra, and Sunita's entrepreneurship in Uttar Pradesh, Transparent Gullak is driven by the belief that empowering individuals with the will to create positive change can lead to a brighter future. Together, they strive to introduce rich Indian traditions to the world, fostering a community-driven approach towards sustainable livelihoods.

Artisan Support Programme
Transparent Gullak operates by first establishing a Creator Network to identify artisans or organisations crafting traditional handicrafts in India's tribal, rural, and humble communities. It provides artisans with access to capital support for their artwork if required. Additionally, it receives expert community assistance for product standardization, legal matters, quality control, and packaging. Through these efforts, Transparent Gullak aims to connect high-quality Indian ethnic products with global markets, fostering self-sustainability among artisans.
