Triumph Over Adversity – Meet Artisan Zeena

Meet Artisan Zeena, a beacon of strength and resilience that defines Yezidi women. At FYF’s Enterprise and Training Center, Zeena crafts not just traditional carpets but a tale of triumph over adversity. Her journey from displacement to becoming a skilled artisan is a testament to the unyielding strength of Yezidi women who have faced the unimaginable.

Each purchase of Zeena’s hand woven carpets contributes to a sustainable income for her and her family. Join us in celebrating Zeena and countless other Yezidi women who have worked hard to rebuild their lives in the aftermath of genocide.
