Hervantage: The Fabric of Society

 It’s International Women’s Day on March 8 and we’re dedicating this month to celebrate women who are leading social enterprises in the country. Tanoti is a congregation of Sarawakian women weavers and artisans dedicated towards the production, promotion and proliferation of hand-crafted fabrics. This continuously-growing community of craftswomen had its origins in a research and development workshop set up by a foundation established by Her Royal Highness the Queen of Malaysia in 2008, the Yayasan Tuanku Nur Zahirah.
