Meet Fidelia
In the rural area of the Department of Sololá in Guatemala, located in the western highlands, there are many families that are dedicated to agriculture. In these families, women typically are responsible for the breeding of animals and the creation of textiles that are traditional to the area. From an early age, women learn to weave and/or embroider so that in the future they can make their own traditional clothing. In the municipality of Santa Lucía Utatlán, there are small factories where they make clothes such as pants, shirts, and jackets.
