Initiated in 2001 as part of the United Nations Volunteer Project for Youth Vocational Training in Asia Pacific, the Youth Textile Handicraft Workshop aims to cultivate young people's vocational abilities and to provide employment and income-generating opportunities to local young women. All products are made of cotton coloured with 100 per cent natural dyes. The fabrics are dyed in four villages - Ban Hatkho in Muang Pak Ou, Nanyang Tai in Muang Nambak, and Ban Na and Ban Mongkeo in Muang Chomphet.
