In the coastal town of Safaga, Egypt, the DERTOUR Foundation supports “Women Empowerment – Sewing for the Future” – a project that opens doors for widows and single mothers. In a modest tailoring workshop, they craft textiles and jewellery, while also crafting independence.
With improved equipment, targeted training, and clean solar energy, the workshop will soon grow into a modern studio, providing stable work for at least 50 women and their families.
It’s a story of courage, dignity, and inclusion – and a reminder that sustainable change begins with a single thread.
