The Guangxi Wucai Yao Skill Workshop, a poverty alleviation project in Dahua Yao autonomous county, won the second prize at the 4th China Chuangyi Entrepreneurship and Innovation Guangxi Competition on Aug 14.

As a result of winning the prize, the workshop can now apply to enter the business incubation bases recognized by the human resources and social security departments at all levels in Guangxi, and enjoy various support measures such as discount loans, training and guidance, and financial support.

Guangxi Wucai Yao Skill Workshop is an innovative project established for impoverished women. It aims to carry out intangible cultural heritage skills and sewing technology training for women in poor areas to provide flexible channels for increasing their employment and income.

The project has highlighted that by inheriting national culture and skills and creating a series of intangible cultural heritage tourism products, poor women can increase their employment and income prospects, be empowered and better integrate into society.

At present, the workshop mainly focuses on Yao embroidered bags plus traditional and modern ethnic clothing, and it has been invited to a number of places for exhibition and promotion. In 2019, the workshop helped 39 impoverished women find jobs.
