She’s caring alone for eight children in Bidibidi refugee camp after her husband returned to South Sudan to search for a job. ”I’ve tried to tell my husband that he has to work for the children so they can get a better life,” she says. “But he’s doing nothing.” What began as a @natgeo assignment is now the @milayaproject, a nonprofit we just launched on Kickstarter to connect customers with South Sudanese women making hand-embroidered pillowcases, bedspreads, and wall hangings, like those seen in the background. The civil war in South Sudan has displaced two million people. When refugees arrived to Uganda they carried their only possessions wrapped in embroidered sheets passed down for generations called milayas. Today in Bidibidi, the second largest refugee camp in the world, milayas are being sewn but there are few customers. Through the Milaya Project these women will be able to sell their art and transform their collectives into self-sufficient businesses.」5月10日 20時05分
