Moderated by Dezeen s editor-in-chief Marcus Fairs, the panel featured Farah Nasri, the council s assistant manager of curation and design, who will give an insight into the organisation and its aims.

The three creatives will speak about their work with Irthi Contemporary Craft Council and discuss how the collaboration with the Bedouin artisans changed their view on their own practice.
The panel also addressed the value in pairing local artisans with design practices and discussed how it can create long-term and sustainable economic empowerment for female makers in the UAE.
