Fatima was born in 1965 in Goulmima. When she was younger, Fatima lived in France where her father was working at the time. When she married, she returned back to Morocco where she now lives with her husband, who works in construction. Fatima is the mother of five children.
Naima was born in Gaouz and is 31 years old. Naima only got to study for three years in primary school, dropping out because of her family's living conditions. However, she has continued to learn through locally provided literacy courses. Now, she is a mentor in Association El Wifak and she specializes in Crochet. She learned how to crochet thanks to the local women's association where she got to earn her diploma in knitting. She hopes that the local products will continue to become known nationally and internationally, and allow for their local community to have a prosperous future.
