Saudi Arabia seeks to develop its handicraft sector in a balanced and sustainable manner, as it is culturally diverse and economically rich based on the fact that the activity literally reflects cultural diversity and the authenticity of the national hand made products with a scope for providing employment opportunity for all the segments of the society and increase the income of the citizens. It is also a source for the development of economic resources through revitalizing the tourist traffic and the tourist trade.
SCTH has linked this sector to the national heritage sites and the tourism and tourism events through highlighting the importance of handicrafts through bulletins and publications on the types of crafts in the Kingdom, and distributed them in local and international festivals where SCTH is a participant.
SCTH in collaboration with its strategic partners in general, and the “Herfa Association” in particular, has participated in the national initiative campaign to support the productive families in the field of traditional crafts and art.
