Kokro is a Nepali product that follows in the footsteps of the best baby care initiatives from northern Europe. Kokro (काेक्राे) is the Nepali word for the traditional baby cot and Kokroma (काेक्राेमा) means 'inside' or 'belonging to' the Kokro.100% COTTON WOVEN BY PRISONERSMost of the fabrics we use are woven by prisoners in Nepal. These fabrics are made to a very high standard and the quality of workmanship is some of the highest in the country. By using textiles made in state prisons, Kokroma is promoting the work of prisoners who have been taught weaving skills, providing them with an income to support their families back home.FAIR PAY FOR WOMEN TAILORSWe source our pattern making and tailoring from groups of women who are all working from home. Kokroma supports small scale production where women take pride in their work and have the opportunity of flexible hours; working to their own clock - allowing them to stay at home without having to expend energy and time on travel. This allows greater access to employment for those who have a lack of mobility.A SUMMER OF INSPIRATION IN FINLANDThe idea of Kokroma came after our founder, Rewati Gurung attended the University of Helsinki Summer School, "Gender, Culture and Politics" in 2015.As part of the course, she learnt about the Finnish Baby Box and the benefits that have been brought to Finnish society. Then, after years of research in handicraft and social entrepreneurship in Nepal, finally Kokroma was born. We aim to revive the authentic traditional Nepali infant clothing and its indigenous knowledge regarding baby care with a contemporary design aesthetic by adopting the basic principles of the Finnish Baby Box.
