The World Crafts Council Europe (WCC Europe) promotes European design-led crafts and applied arts of the highest quality. It seeks to strengthen the status of crafts as a vital part of cultural and economic life and to build up an international network of professional craft organisations and makers across Europe. It also represents crafts at official, political, and administrative levels and joins international cooperation programmes of importance to the crafts sector. WCC Europe is one of the five regional branches of the World Crafts Council, an international, non-governmental, non-profit organisation founded in 1964 and recognised by UNESCO.
