    Thank you for alerting UNESCO about the very alarming situation of the weavers of Varanasi. This impact of globalisation, and the 'elimination' of small -scale producers of the cultural industries is precisely what UNESCO aims to focus on in advocating for cultural diversity. Although UNESCO not a funding agency, I would be delighted to support your efforts.
