Learning Crafts Skills Helps Yezidi Women Heal from Trauma

FYF’s talented female artisans are working on custom orders for carpets. Every purchase from FYF’s ETC directly benefits Yezidi genocide survivors, as the majority of proceeds from sales go directly to the artisans.

“My job as an artisan helps me with relaxation and meditation, as weaving makes me forget all of my worries and anxious feelings about the Yezidi genocide and the difficult living conditions in the IDP camp. I am grateful that FYF provided us with the Enterprise and Training Center (ETC) and this kind of economic empowerment.”
