Who we are

Hecho Por Nosotros emerged in 2008 in response to the mass-consumption models dominant in global creative industries, driven by a vision of a circular economy. Our initiatives address key social and environmental challenges, including the lack of social consciousness in business practices, the growing disconnection from nature, and the marginalization of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in a globalized world. By adopting circular economy principles, fostering deeper connections with nature, and promoting the inclusion of MSMEs, we aim to transform the creative industry into one that not only thrives but uplifts communities and protects the planet for future generations. We integrate indigenous wisdom and respect traditional knowledge to create a more holistic approach to sustainability. Through collaboration, we bridge cultural divides, leveraging diverse perspectives to drive innovation and advance progress toward a sustainable future aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

OUR MISSION

Our commitment extends beyond mere rhetoric; we actively engage in capacity-building initiatives. Through education and advocacy, we aim to amplify the voices of marginalized groups, ensuring that their perspectives are heard and respected in the global discourse on sustainability and development.

OUR VISION

Our vision focuses on learning from artisans and SMEs, as we believe that solutions come from the grassroots of the industry and that these communities hold the key to generating systemic change. We partner to create strategies to transform and improve your organizations together in the best way for your community, stakeholders and goals.

Adriana Marina

"Reinvent the creative industry by using technology to boost the activity and knowledge of artisans and micro-enterprises, as well as small and medium-sized businesses, often excluded from the global fashion economy, with the aim of validating their knowledge and promote sustainable production techniques, processes and natural fibers and thus achieve an inclusive model based on sustainability, circularity and joint creation".
