World Crafts Council
was founded in 1964 and is an international, non-governmental, non-profit organisation recognized by UNESCO. Its general objective is to strengthen the status of crafts as a vital part of cultural and economic life, to promote a sense of fellowship among the craftspeople of the world and to offer them encouragement, help and advice.

The World Crafts Council (International) is composed of five regional branches:
WCC-Africa, WCC-Asia, WCC-Europe, WCC-Latin America, and WCC-North America.
