Rabiaa was born in the Ouarzazate region and has lived in the area for her entire life. Her husband passed away several years ago and now lives with her immediate family as she has no children. She joined the association because she wanted to learn how to weave and support herself through the sales of her rugs.
Fatima was born in the town of Zagora and moved to Ourzazate when she married her now husband. Born only in the 90's she is one of the youngest members of the association and often provides new and innovative ideas to all the women.
Fatima, born in the 80's, is the second youngest member of the association at the time of writing. Fatima did not attend school but is currently studying how to read and write in local literacy classes. She hopes that through her sales, she'll be able to provide for her future family.
