Studio Naenna is a community of weavers, embroiderers and designers based in Chiang Mai, Thailand. They bring together women artisans from different ethnic groups to produce handmade textiles of the highest quality in an environmentally friendly and sustainable way.

The aim of the studio is to promote the proud bonds of traditional techniques and empower women of peripheral village communities.

For more than ten years, the Dr. Robert Dyckerhoff Foundation has been supporting disadvantaged children and young people from the ethnic minorities in the northwest of Thailand and, in particular, promotes the school and university education of young people from the south-east Asian mountain people of the Karen, who, due to their ethnic identity and their often poor knowledge of the Thai language, have difficult access to education and only limited opportunities on the Thai labour market.

In the past ten years, the Dr. Robert Dyckerhoff Foundation has already been able to support more than 200 children and young people on their way.
