Women carpet training in Arsali wins UAE support
21-12-2018
UAE ambassador to Lebanon, Hamad Saeed Shamsi, signed yesterday a cooperation agreement with the Relief and Humanitarian Aid Organization of Dar al Fatwa aimed at implementing a training course on Arsali carpet weaving. The 3-month workshop will be reportedly implemented with the support of Shargah Charity International and the supervision of the Humanitarian and Development Affairs Attache at the embassy in Beirut. Around 40 Syrian women will benefit from the project which comes within the framework of plans designed to empower women and help them develop their capacities and skills. During the signing, Shamsi explained that Arsal-made carpets were chosen to help the Beqaa town residents who generously hosted displaced Syrians since the start of the conflict, and bore the brunt as a result.
