They know the importance of empowerment, and they are interested in building courage to seek out and take advantage of opportunities to improve their social and economic situations through their cooperative. Empowerment of these women is maximized by collectivization.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop provides these women with a way to create an intensive practical experience in a short amount of time, especially since they may be too far apart to gather together regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Women proclaim, \u201c I can\u2019t live alone\u2014I need people around me to share with them my happiness, strengths and weaknesses.\u201d If we hear someone say, \u201cI want to be alone and get away from people,\u201d further discussion reveals that they cannot be alone for a long time because life insists on us being with each other. As one woman began to speak: \u201cMaking a good relationship with others first requires a good and honest relationship with ourselves. We learn that if we don\u2019t give to ourselves first, we cannot help others.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In practical terms, this cooperative\u2019s vision for the future is not limited to marketing their products. They want to benefit from the HAF&#8217;s tree planting project to grow skincare plants on their land instead of buying them, as well as attend training workshops about the \u201cgreen\u201d cosmetic technologies, which HAF can assist with by its implementing the USAID Farmer-to-Farmer Program in Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>We appreciate all the hard work that women put into this workshop, and we truly look forward to continuing to follow this women&#8217;s cooperative and see all that they accomplish!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Zineb LAADAM HAF Field officer On February 9th, 2023, HAF\u2019s Imagine empowerment facilitators met with 18 women from M\u2019salla Cooperative in Jnanate village, located in the Beni Boufrah municipality of the Al Hoceima province.
