- UNDP, in cooperation with the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunications, city of Valjevo, municipal tourism organization and Ethno Network, organized training for female entrepreneurs engaged in handiwork, in order to acquire the skills of online trade and marketing, as well as packaging and branding of their products. All course participants master traditional skills and crafts such as embroidery, knitting and felting, which combine with fashion and design, thus turning passion and hobby into business opportunities, and newly acquired skills will help them be more visible and present in the modern market – said UNDP Resident Representative to Serbia, Francine Pickup.
