Sustainable management of the Makira Forest requires changes in the practices of local subsistence farmers. SEPALIM teaches farmers silk rearing and sustainable production techniques that bolsters family income by 60-200% and restores habitat. It trains local artisans to transform cocoons into unique cocoon silk textiles. Pupae are removed from the cocoons and pupae protected until their maturity. Hence, our silk production is no-kill and sustainable and these textiles are called "peace silk".
