Dunia: The Engineer of Change in Her Village

Ms. Asma Mohammed Tadhafur Program

Ms. Asma Mohammed, 19, has never visualized the moment she would find herself a mother of a five-year-old girl, yet divorced, her father died before, and she had to make ends meet for herself, her mother and her sister. Thrown into this path of struggle and patience, Ms. Asma has never given up. She made the right decision to change her life for better and started to learn sewing and made her way up to tailoring women’s clothes and selling their accessories in every gathering she could meet women. She was not happy to see that some women looking down upon her as a woman selling stuff of less quality and yet she was doing her best to market her products.
