Indian Institute of Crafts and Design ( IICD ) Entrance Examination

The Handicrafts sector is widely spread throughout the country and offers direct employment to approximately thirteen million people. If the number of people dependent on handicrafts for a livelihood, through all intermediary activities is taken into consideration, then the figure would be four times higher. The traditional repertoire of the variety of materials used, their forms, functions, techniques and cultural semantics is enormous and a rich resource which is more relevant in today’s context and concern for sustainable development. Handicraft exports accounts for a sizeable proportion of the country’s export basket. The growth potential of the sector both in terms of domestic and global market is substantial.
