POSITION ARTISANS WILL BE ABLE TO USE THE WASTE, EXCESS, AND BI-PRODUCTS OF THEIR POTTERY PRODUCTION, AS WELL AS THE PRE-PRODUCTION RAW MATERIAL, TO CREATE NEW PRODUCT LINES. COOPERATIVE WORKING BETWEEN DESIGNERS/BUILDERS AND LOCAL ARTISAN FAMILIES IN ORDER TO CREATE ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS, MODULES AND/OR BUILDING SYSTEMS FOR THE FAMILY TO PRODUCE AND SELL. THIS WOULD INCREASE FINANCIAL OPPORTUNITIES AND STABILITY FOR THESE ARTISAN FAMILIES. IN ADDITION TO PROVIDING ECONOMIC STABILITY FOR THE FAMILIES, THROUGH DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PRODUCTS, BUILDING MODULES, AND ARCHITECTURAL SYSTEMS, ARTISANS WILL BE EMPOWERED TO ASSIST IN THE SELF-SUFFICIENCY OF THEIR LOCAL NEIGHBOORHOOD. CREATING INDIVIDUAL AND INFRASTURCTURAL INVERVENTIONS WILL ALLOW ARTISANS TO PUT PERSONAL AND CULTURAL STAMPS ON THEIR MUNICIPALITIES.

INTERVENTIONS FOUND WITHIN ATZOMPA CAN BE APPLIED TO SIMILARLY AFFECTED AREAS OF THE STATE, COUNTRY, AND GLOBE. WITH PRODUCTION OF CERAMICS IN ATZOMPA BEING A MAJOR OCCUPATION, THE TOWN COULD POTENTIALLY CREATE ENOUGH PRODUCTS TO SUSTAIN THEIR OWN INFRASTRUCTURE AND ALSO CREATE SYSTEMS THAT ARE APPLIED ELSEWHERE.
