Mikono Artisan Market

Mikono Artisan Market is a social enterprise dedicated to empowering refugee artisans by connecting their handmade crafts with global markets. Founded by the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS), Mikono Artisan Market provides a platform for refugee artisans to produce and sell their crafts, enabling them to achieve financial independence and rebuild their lives1. The market focuses on promoting financial inclusion, uplifting refugee artisans through income generation, and preserving cultural traditions. By leveraging e-commerce and a fulfillment service, Mikono Artisan Market ensures quick and efficient delivery of goods to consumers while reinvesting all profits into training new generations of refugee artisans1. The enterprise aims to create an ecosystem for refugee-made handcrafts, promoting talent and social entrepreneurship.

Mikono Artisan Market is committed to transforming refugee lives through handicrafts and technology, providing a sustainable path to self-reliance and economic inclusion.
