U.S. servicewomen forge women’s empowerment in Agadez
Two members of the Tedhilt Women’s Association show members of the Air Base 201 Women’s Associations their sewing projects in Agadez, Niger, March 6, 2022. Tedhilt Women’s Association offers a two-year program, which teaches women how to use a sewing machine and build a business to become financially secure. The AB201 Women’s Association supported the Tedhilt Women’s Association by purchasing approximately 250,000 West African CFA francs ($420 USD) of handmade scarfs, ceramic sculptures, received henna tattoos and commissioned four dresses.
