Handicraft Workshop: Visit the Traditional Crafts Workshop to explore and purchase handmade textiles and leather items crafted by local women. Workshops are also available for travelers wishing to learn the techniques firsthand.

Cultural Experiences: Participate in a traditional tea ceremony and enjoy homemade sweets. Experience a henna tattoo session, where the cultural significance of each design is explained by a local specialist.

Lasting Impact on the Community

In partnership with Planeterra, AFER empowers rural women in M'Haya by generating income, building social connections, and supporting essential community services like education, healthcare, and disability support.

The association's community programs foster economic independence, cultural appreciation, and environmental stewardship. AFER’s training center provides annual cooking classes, welcoming 30 women and young people to earn diplomas recognized by the state.
