About Cooperative Nahda
Organized in 2008, Association Nahda, or renaissance, is a fitting name for association in the small, yet progressive town of Oued Ifrane. Three men, Mustapha Chaouai, Said Degousi and Hassan Skuri started the association in order to find new ways to create higher paying jobs in their village. Because of founders’ skill sets of working with wood and metal, the association started by selling functional items made for Moroccan homes at craft fairs throughout the country. \r\n\r\nTheir success inspired them to make sure the women in their village gained access to higher paying jobs within the village as well. Women in Oued Ifrane traditionally travelled to neighboring areas to do agriculture work for little pay. However, the founders of the association recognized the local women’s carpet weaving talent passed down through many generations and thought that if they were organized under the association, the women could sell their carpets and become financially independent. As a result, Association Nahda submitted an application to the Moroccan government to create a women’s cooperative in the village in 2011. The association now takes 10% of each sale and reinvests this money back into the women. Currently, the association is saving the money to invest in new female-oriented businesses, such as a bakery, in order to diversify and create more income generating opportunities for women in the village
