Material & care

Lavet af Asmaa

Sammen med sine kollegaer fra Yemen, Sydsudan og Syrien syer Asmaa lædertasker i deres fælles studie i Cairo, Egypten.

Hun kom selv til Egypten for 4 år siden og har søgt arbejde længe, inden hun fandt sin plads her. Før ankomsten til landet havde Asmaa ikke syet i læder før, men det kom naturligt til hende, efter de første workshops i studiet, som kun har kvinder ansat.

Selv drømmer hun om en dag at åbne et galleri eller en workshop, som den hun selv havde glæde af. Men lige nu nyder hun allermest, at snakke med sine kollegaer og lære af hinanden hver dag.

When you buy products from The -able, you support people fleeing to...

Better mental health

Creating something with your hands can have a profound positive impact on mental health, especially for those who have experienced trauma. Studies show that engaging in hands-on activities can reduce stress and anxiety by up to 45%.

Many of the artisans we collaborate with have faced significant challenges in adjusting to new countries, often feeling displaced and disconnected.

Through practicing familiar crafts and connecting with new, like-minded communities, they begin to regain a sense of ownership, belonging, and community. Each product you purchase carries the story of a person’s journey, as well as their opportunity to rebuild and create anew.

Jouhania, who embroiders products in the Shatila refugee camp for The -able, shares: 'For me, embroidering is like stitching my life back together, thread by thread. It’s a traditional Palestinian craft that I am proud to bring back to life.

Greater financial freedom

According to the UN, around 70% of refugees live below the poverty line, and many do not have permission to work. Through our cooperation with local NGOs, people on the run get the opportunity to work and earn their own money through jobs they are good at. When people on the run are given the opportunity to be included in the labor market and earn their own money through dignified work, the sense of belonging to the new countries is strengthened and they are given the opportunity to take their first steps towards financial independence again.

Amina, who makes bags for The -able in Lebanon, says: “ Being financially independent from relief organizations has helped me regain my self-confidence and respect - I no longer feel like I'm outside, and I pass this strength and joy on to my children.”

Preserve endangered cultural heritage

An often overlooked consequence of people being forced to leave their homes and land is that local crafts are threatened. The traditions risk disappearing, as those who master the craft must leave materials, tools and practices behind.

At The -able, we work to preserve these traditions by always starting from the knowledge, skills and designs of the artisans and then integrating them into modern design and sustainable practices that can be continued in new countries.

Through our work, we ensure that these skills and traditions live on, while celebrating fine craftsmanship and respecting both people and the planet.

Thank you for shopping at The -able. Every purchase makes a difference to a person forced to flee or living in a conflict-affected area.
