A comprehensive program of design activities and strategic planning focussed on providing sustainable assistance to the artisan sector in Haiti including product development, market launches and pro-bono creation of identities and advertising campaigns with agencies like J. Walter Thompson, Taxi, and, Ogilvy and Mather. The outcomes represent a convergence of design with ethnography, service, product and artifact. Over 40 new products were developed during the course of the project with four SME’s (small and medium enterprise) and four artisan communities.
