Burkina Faso: Valorising local clothing
After a post-graduate diploma in audit, Carole SANHOUIDI ventured into handicrafts by creating FemFaso, a brand that promotes the local Faso Danfani, woven by women.
This decision was not easily accepted by her family, who saw a bright future for Carole in the field of her studies. With perseverance, Carole managed to overcome these difficulties. FemFaso is now a well-known brand in Burkina Faso, with the aim to be a pan-African brand.
"I am a very persevering, determined person. I don't stop until I have reached my goal. This is my greatest strength," says Carole.
