Bring crafts to primary and secondary schools!
The Hermès Foundation has launched a project called “Manufacto” in the new school year, which aims to bring craftsmanship into primary and secondary education. The goal of this project is to promote and pass on handicraft skills and cultivate students’ creativity and craftsmanship. Here is a brief description of the project:
Handicraft education: The Manufacto project works to integrate handicrafts into the curriculum of primary and secondary schools. Through various handicraft activities, students can learn and master traditional handicraft skills, such as weaving, carving, pottery, leather crafting, etc.
Creativity Development: By participating in craft activities, students have the opportunity to develop creativity and imagination. They are free to express their ideas and turn them into actual works. This helps to develop students’ artistic expression and problem-solving skills.
Craftsman spirit: The Manufacto project also emphasizes the cultivation of craftsman spirit. Students will learn how to pay attention to detail, strive for excellence and work hard consistently. This value helps to develop students’ self-confidence and professionalism.
Ongoing support: The Hermès Foundation provides long-term support for this project and cooperates with schools, educational institutions and craft experts to carry out training and educational activities. This ensures the sustainability and impact of the project.
The launch of the Manufacto project provides students with a wider field of study and encourages them to develop diverse skills and talents. Through handicraft education, students can experience the joy and sense of accomplishment of creation and benefit a lot in their future career choices. The efforts of the Hermès Foundation will help promote the inheritance and development of handicrafts, while providing more abundant resources for the education of the next generation.
