The network of our past students, master crafts-men and -wimen today, teaching in their own workshops are located in : Tanzania, Columbia, Mozambique, Nigeria, Iran, France, DRC congo, Somaliland . . . . .

"The secrecy in the gem and jewelry business is exactly the reason why I started to teach. It is very hard to learn if nobody is willing to share. If something is missing you need to become ( or turn yourself into ) what is missing. One day you will teach in your own country and make all the difference. Sharing and the concept of paying it forward is a joyful way into a different future."

You are cordially invited to participate.
