What We Do

More than a platform. A support system.

Eight areas of work, all pointing the same way — turning skill into opportunity.

01

Artisan & Artist Registration

Become part of the HHDDC India community. Registration helps us understand your craft, your experience, your products and the opportunities you are looking for.

02

Government Scheme Awareness

Several government schemes and programmes exist for artisans, weavers, MSMEs and traditional crafts, but information is often scattered or hard to understand. We help our community discover relevant schemes and understand eligibility.

We don’t promise benefits. We help you find the right information and direction.

03

Exhibitions & Events

A beautiful product needs the right platform. Through our exhibitions and curated events, we create opportunities for artisans, designers, artists and craft-based businesses to meet customers and build visibility.

04

National Market Access

We want Indian craft to travel beyond its place of origin — creating opportunities for artisans to showcase their work across cities, states and different customer communities.

05

International Opportunities

Indian craftsmanship has a story the world wants to discover. We aim to facilitate participation in international exhibitions, showcases, collaborations and markets.

06

Design & Product Development

Tradition should not have to stand still. We encourage artisans and designers to explore new products, contemporary applications and improved presentation — while respecting the identity of the craft.

07

Artisan Employment & Livelihoods

A craft survives when its maker can make a living from it. We aim to create and facilitate pathways for employment, entrepreneurship, collaborations and income generation.

08

Visibility & Storytelling

Every craft has a story, and every artisan deserves to be known for the story behind their work. We bring visibility to artisans, crafts, techniques and communities through exhibitions, digital platforms, campaigns and storytelling.

Government Scheme Awareness

Information that is easier to find and easier to understand.

Government departments and institutions offer several schemes and programmes for artisans, weavers, MSMEs, entrepreneurs and traditional crafts. But information is often scattered or difficult to understand.

We aim to help our community discover relevant schemes, understand eligibility and know where to seek further assistance.

We don't promise benefits. We help you find the right information and direction.

Actual eligibility, approval and benefits are decided by the respective government authority.
