PROJECT TWO MILE

MORE THAN BOLD PATTERNS AND EXQUISITE TEXTURES. THIS IS STORY, STRENGTH, AND SOLIDARITY.

Founded by, Australian based, Papua New Guinean native Maggie T Kera, Project Two Mile works with women in Port Moresby’s informal settlements—where they face some of the country’s greatest economic and social barriers. Through dignified work and fair wages, each Bilum bag becomes a pathway to economic independence and cultural pride.

MADE BY HAND, ROOTED IN CULTURE, AND DRIVEN BY WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT

Project Two Mile is a grassroots, female-led social enterprise founded with a singular purpose: to economically and purposefully uplift the lives of marginalised women by providing a global platform for their artwork and crafts.

Each Bilum bag is handmade by women in Port Moresby’s informal settlements using time-honoured techniques passed down through generations. Your purchase supports their livelihoods, preserves cultural heritage, and helps women thrive on their own terms.
