The handloom weaving project is an undertaking of the women of Dayawan, Marawi City of Philippines, implemented by the Philippine Foundation for Resource Management (PFRM) with financial support from the Philippines-Australia Community Assistance Program (PACAP) in cooperation with the local government and the department of trade and industry. The project is a unique venture strengthening both the private sector development and women's empowerment. It has also contributed to the peace and development initiatives in the autonomous region of Muslim Mindanao. Handloom weaving has now become the center of today's thriving local economy of Dayawan. This home-based handloom weaving project has revived, preserved, and further developed a centuries-old tradition and industry. But in order for this cultural heritage to guarantee a living, concrete economic benefits should be felt by the weavers and their families. This project has proved its economic viability and financial profitability. Slowly it is being mainstreamed into the market. It has diversified its products and mainstreamed its product base to more utilitarian and consumer items such as bags, wallets, envelopes, conference kits, among others. While still maintaining its unique intricate designs, it has also improved its textile quality. Alternatives have come with the use of less expensive threads.
