Popis: Textile handicrafts are often seen as an important tool for women to handle times of crisis and societal change. This chapter explores and discusses the Swedish humanitarian organisation Individuell Människohjälp (Swedish Development Partner), IM, and its strategies of developing local traditions of textile handicraft work as help to self-help in the small mountain village of Vlasti in Northern Greece, 1963–1988. It is a period affected by various crises – the memories of occupation and civil war in the 1940s, the takeover of the military junta and dictatorship, as well as social and economic hardship. It is also a time of urbanisation, labor migration and family separation. When most men had died in the wars or left for work in other places, women, children and the elderly were left behind. IM identified that support systems for these groups needed to be bolstered to help them cope with detrimental impacts of the crises. Through analysing the narratives and practices of IM, as published in newsletters, reports, memory accounts and a documentary film, the chapter discusses strategies of gender empowerment through access to human, social and economic resources and the challenges to such projects. The chapter then shows how the narratives and practices are embedded in contemporary gender norms and how the entanglements of gender, empowerment and handicrafts are ambivalent.

  Data: Textile handicrafts are often seen as an important tool for women to handle times of crisis and societal change. This chapter explores and discusses the Swedish humanitarian organisation Individuell Människohjälp (Swedish Development Partner), IM, and its strategies of developing local traditions of textile handicraft work as help to self-help in the small mountain village of Vlasti in Northern Greece, 1963–1988. It is a period affected by various crises – the memories of occupation and civil war in the 1940s, the takeover of the military junta and dictatorship, as well as social and economic hardship. It is also a time of urbanisation, labor migration and family separation. When most men had died in the wars or left for work in other places, women, children and the elderly were left behind. IM identified that support systems for these groups needed to be bolstered to help them cope with detrimental impacts of the crises. Through analysing the narratives and practices of IM, as published in newsletters, reports, memory accounts and a documentary film, the chapter discusses strategies of gender empowerment through access to human, social and economic resources and the challenges to such projects. The chapter then shows how the narratives and practices are embedded in contemporary gender norms and how the entanglements of gender, empowerment and handicrafts are ambivalent.
