What people say about us
Its nice to be be back for this visit with Norbert. His efforts in putting up the pump house and the museum are commendable. One sees the integration of the project with the village! Once again we encouraged the people to keep the tradition of building with mud alive. It's a great learning - life coming back to the future!

First of all it’s helping women to earn their livelihood besides working for emancipation of women in a rural area. I bought a doll from an exhibition held in Lahore and simply fell in love with their products. Hats off to this organisation. God bless!

💐A COLLECTION OF OUR ETHNIC DOLLS🌷
Thatta Kedona, the handicrafts project based in the village of Thatta Ghulamka Dhiroka, District Okara, Pakistan, was initiated more than three decades ago by the German artist and anthropologist Dr. Senta Siller. The project is especially renowned for its beautifully handcrafted ethnic dolls.
Presented here is a collection of ethnic doll pairs representing the rich cultural diversity of different regions of Pakistan.

Very beautiful Masha Allah ❣️
With deep sadness we share the news that our dear friend Irene Moser from Switzerland has passed away. She will be laid to rest on 13 March 2026 in Switzerland.
Irene lived in Lahore for many years together with her husband Jack Moser, former Head of Milk Collection at Nestlé Pakistan. During that time she became a kind friend and supporter of our village Thatta Ghulamka Dhiroka and our handicrafts initiative Thatta Kedona.
We will always remember her warm heart and generosity — especially the moments when she visited the village, distributed free textbooks to the children of the local school, and spent time with the women and girls of the community. The photos also show her together with Dr. Senta Siller, who founded the project more than three decades ago.
Today we mourn the loss of a compassionate friend whose kindness touched many lives.
May she rest in peace. 🤍 #womensupportingwomen #women #womenempoweringwomen #womenempowerment #village #handmade #handicrafts #thattakedona #OkaraCity #embroidery #Pakistan #handcrafted #ethnicdolls #dolls ... See MoreSee Less
