Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The art of mat weaving and its significance in Africa's economy trace back to the 19th century, representing a longstanding tradition. However, a concerning trend has emerged as the younger generation pursues white-collar professions and modern lifestyles, gradually forsaking this age-old practice. This shift poses a tangible threat to the continuity of this traditional trade.
