Fatima Bouhkiy

Fatima was born in 1946 in Taslant, where she married and became a mother to seven boys. Fatima never had the opportunity to attend school, and has been a weaver since she was a young girl, learning from her mother. She is one of the first women to encourage the rest of the women to create the coop. Fatima hopes that the coop can grow and develop and allow the women to show their products in world markets.
