In Lebanon, these Palestinian refugees sew designs from a homeland they've never seen

For these women, their trade—traditional Palestinian embroidery, called tatreez—provides both a livelihood and a connection to their homeland.

The workshop's initial mission was to provide a trade for widows and other impoverished Palestinian women, highlighting the challenges they face.

In 2021, UNESCO named tatreez to a global list of handicrafts considered 'intangible' to the 'cultural heritage of humanity,' elevating its significance.

Tatreez gains renown as a symbol of resistance and identity for Palestinians everywhere, encouraging global recognition and visits from the diaspora.
