HANDMADE BY REFUGEE WOMEN

Alle unsere Produkte werden von geflüchteten Frauen in unseren Ateliers in Athen und Izmir von Hand gefertigt. Wir arbeiten mit Reststoffen aus der Textilndustrie und Upcycling-Materialien, die wir vor dem Müll bewahren. Jedes Produkt ist ein Unikat oder nur in sehr begrenzter Stückzahl erhältlich. Die Erlöse aus jedem einzelnen Kauf fliessen direkt zurück in die Unterstützung unserer talentierten Schneiderinnen und ihrer Familien – sowie Tausender weiterer geflüchteter Menschen in Griechenland, der Türkei und in der Schweiz.

Im Moment liefern wir nur in der Schweiz.

100% Social Impact

  • We create jobs for refugee women, including childcare during working hours, to help them achieve financial independence for themselves and their families.
  • All profits go to our Safe Space for refugee women and children in Athens, which is visited over 1200 times a month.
  • Each product includes a label with the story of the woman who made it. This way, we raise awareness of the challenges refugee women face on their journey and in Europe in a simple but effective way.

Our Tailors

Unsere Näherinnen sind geflüchtete Frauen, die in Athen leben. Sie stammen ursprünglich aus Afghanistan, dem Kongo, Pakistan, Guinea, Kurdistan, Kamerun und dem Iran. Viele von ihnen sind alleinerziehende Mütter.

Fanny packs have been experiencing something of a renaissance for some time now. The small bags that were popular in the 90s can now be seen again at almost every party. The handy bags, which are ideal for going out, are not only surprisingly roomy - they're big enough for a mobile phone, wallet and keys - but also make great accessories. The fanny packs from Glocal Roots impress with their variety.
