Taking into account the above, this document investigates the main characteristics of the orange economy and its relationship with handicrafts, to then show from the government and other institutions what has been the support that has been given to the people who are dedicated to these activities, identifying what benefits they can potentially access to reduce the negative impact on their finances and well-being in the face of the economic crisis. © 2021, Associacao Iberica de Sistemas e Tecnologias de Informacao.
