In rural Morocco, women play an integral role in the sustainability of their communities. HAF works to have these women’s voices heard through organized women’s cooperatives. HAF will be presenting in conjunction with Kantara Crafts, a fair trade company specializing in women’s carpet weaving cooperatives, on the importance of cooperatives, current projects being led in the High Atlas Mountains, and the production-to-sale process of the crafts. Come learn more about women’s cooperatives, how the crafts are made, meet new people, and find out ways you can get involved!
Please join us on Sunday, May 2nd for our Women’s Cooperative Eat.Drink.Share at La Lunchonette (130 Tenth Ave. at 18th St, NYC) from 11:00am-1:00pm.
RSVP: nora@highatlasfoundation.org
