The story of Shukriye, learner

Shukriye Heydari comes from Afghanistan. She lives here with her husband and three children. She went to school here for the first time and learns so much more than just German and math each time. All of her children go to school here, and her eldest son helps her with math in the evenings. "While I'm studying with my son, the other children also need my attention and care, and even though that's a bit chaotic, it's a wonderful experience to explore a universe of knowledge together that was previously hidden from me simply because I'm a woman."

She greatly values ​​the craftsmanship and the teamwork at KoKoTé. Shukriye is very proud of every product she creates, as experience has taught her to transform fear into pride. Because it's never too late to learn new things.

In summer 2024, Shukriye began her vocational training as a textile practitioner at KoKoTé and has now successfully completed her first year. We are proud of her progress.
