Nadiy is the youngest member of the cooperative, born in 1996 in Talsnant, having studied until the sixth grade. Nadiy could not finish her studies because her older brother prevented her from attending school. Also because the secondary school is far from her village, it was even more difficult to attend. Nadiy was the first girl in Ait Bouguemez who learned the skills of being a hairdresser and one day hopes to own her own shop. Nadiy is disappointed that the village prevents her from becoming a hairdresser there but hopes to one day own her own shop in the city of Azilal, and encourages the other women of the village to be part of the coop to improve their skills in weaving. Nadiy learned how to weave from her mother when she was a young girl, and hopes that success comes to the coop and the village.
Hasisi is from Ait Abess, having moved to Tasltant searching for work when she was 40 years old. She is the mother of 4 boys who are all attending school. She hopes that having moved to a new place, her boys will be able to have a good future. In her village, the idea of learning and going to school was not even a question - no one did it. She is grateful that her children can pursue and education in Tasalnant. Hasisi learned weaving recently from one of her family members that lives here. She loves that there is a coop and hopes to be able to earn a sustainable income to support her children's education. She hopes that her work will one day be known by all the world.
