Qamaria Craftsman
Qamaria Craftsman
The craftsman Yasser Mohammed Abdo Salem was working at one of the Qamaria shops in Sana'a as a worker with a small daily wage and was subjected to the most severe persecution, suffering and unfair pay. The days went on and things got worse, and the low wages he received were unable to meet the basic needs of him, his wife and children. Yasser decided to raise the daily wage by the equivalent of his work effort; these demands were the cause of his expulsion from work.
A fatal feeling that breaks the heart when you see a sincere man in his work was expelled from work as the result of asking for the most basic rights. Seeing his wife and children without any one to take care of them, facing the bitterness of need as a result he does not want to print in the memory of his sons the image of the father who failed one day.
He walks around here and there and he was told that All-Girls Foundation for Development supports the Yemeni craftsmen. Here he finds a glimmer of hope! He went to the foundation and told them what he had gone through, demanding to give him the opportunity to prove himself it is worth mentioned that he lacks the skill of making molds. The Foundation accepted his request and gave him an opportunity to market his craft in the labor market, where we gave him ready molds and asked him to make an order of up to 200 pieces. Now he is running his own business. He was honored at the opening ceremony of the "Colors of Qamaria unite us" campaign 2017. Through which the Foundation has contributed to the revival of the Yemeni heritage and contributing to raise the income of families producing economic crafts, especially Qamaria industry. The Foundation expressed its rejection of the unfair wages and oppressive treatment exercised by the former head of Yasser. And treated him with fair trade standards such as transparency and price justice, and had his own business in the artisan’s market.
