Our first project, Project Dor works with a community of migrant women from Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal to produce and sell handcrafted tie and dye products to revive this dying art form. It developed from a skill development program in 2016. The Project makes neo-ethnic, versatile, and gender-neutral cotton and chanderi scarves and dupattas, and aims to bring the apparel market’s attention to this dying art.

Project Dor is associated with migrant women from Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal. Currently residing in the JJ Colony of Dwarka, Delhi, these ladies were previously vulnerable and were exploited daily and lacked resources and opportunities but possessed excellent stitching skills and a strong desire to learn.



We have a team of 4 hard-working women namely: Beena ji, Sushila ji, Sunita ji, and Maya ji. Moving a step closer to our ambition of making Dor an independent, self-sustaining business and transforming our community of women into full-fledged entrepreneurs, we recently succeeded in getting the project registered as a legal partnership firm.

Project Dor’s journey has been no less inspiring. In 2017, we entered the market with chic cotton scarves that stood out with their in-vogue presence. Positive market feedback for the existing products led us to expand the product range to chanderi scarves and chanderi dupattas.
