Indian Crafts &
Indigenous People
SYSTEM DESIGN
The challenge given to me in this module was to cover crafts from a systemic point of view and thereby, it is important to look at crafts across India i.e. collectively rather than individually to understand it as a system. When taken together, the ‘Crafts of India’ become a complex systemwith multitudinal angles, benefits and deviants, its stakeholders, customers,etc. There are multiple reasons as to why the nature of the craft is a wicked problem to solve!
