Project Adi Kala

Project Adi Kala is a holistic initiative implemented by Mahashakti Foundation to preserve traditional tribal crafts, strengthen livelihoods, and promote cultural entrepreneurship. The project is rooted in the rich heritage of Odisha and focuses on leveraging indigenous skills to build sustainable income streams for rural artisans and youth.

The initiative empowers artisans across five villages in Lanjigarh by providing them with hands-on training from master trainers, access to raw materials, design development support, and exposure to national and state exhibitions. By blending traditional knowledge with contemporary design, Project Adi Kala is helping local communities transform their creativity into economic empowerment.
