The Story of Tuwani: Crafting Amidst the Impossible

In the small village of Tuwani, shepherds work tirelessly to keep their sheep safe and provide wool to artisans in Bethlehem who create stunning handmade pieces, facing immense challenges every step of the way. Without control over their borders or the ability to move freely within their own land, accessing raw materials is a near-impossible feat. Restricted by checkpoints, denied use of their own lands, plagued by illegal settler violence against themselves and their livestock, the folks in Tuwani must find creative ways to generate income. And the folks at Maan lil Hayyat help them do just that by sourcing wool from Tuwani.

The work done at Maán lil Hayyat using the wool from shepherds in Tuwani is more than just art; it’s a statement of resilience and hope. When you choose to buy handmade from Palestine, you’re not just purchasing decor—you’re supporting livelihoods, preserving culture, and standing in solidarity with a community that refuses to let obstacles define them.
