About Sawubona
Social and Environmental Stewardship
1) Artisans are encouraged to use natural materials and more so repurpose existing materials
2) The handcrafts are made to last a long time and this means that they do not end up in landfill
3) Compositable packaging for shipping
4) We are currently working on partnering with platforms that will enable us to offset carbon emissions through tree planting projects here in New Zealand and Kenya. This is something that we are still working on and will update once we have that sorted out.
5) We will publish a social impact report at the end of 2022.
As a business some of the outcomes we are aiming for are:
Provide quality and long-lasting homewares to our customers
Give African artisans access to international markets and thus a steady source of income.
Ensure that artisans are paid fair wages.
Provide training and employment opportunities to young unemployed Africans.
Promote and provide quality traditional and unique crafts from different countries and at the same time tell the stories of the people who made them.
Overall the biggest outcome being to improve the wellbeing and quality of life for African artisans, their families and communities and this could ripple over to more children going to school, access to good food and nutrition, access to medical care, access to sanitation, electricity and more.
Currently, we are working with over 35 artisans from Nairobi and Kamba region in Kenya. You can read more about the artisans here.
