Mahama Refugee Camp is the largest refugee camp in Rwanda and home to over 70K displaced individuals as of January 2026. Many of whom have been displaced for decades.  

More than refugees, each portrait represents an individual, an artist, and an entrepreneur. A woman whose story, achievements, and aspirations are neither defined nor limited by displacement.

Through their partnership with Indego Africa, these women have unlocked opportunities for income generation, self-reliance, and creative expression, along with a network of mentorship, community, and support.

Indego Africa is dedicated to fostering the growth of sustainable artisan-owned businesses and investing in the women who run them. In 2016, Indego expanded their model of market access and education to refugee camps in Rwanda in partnership with UNHCR and went on to become one of the first social enterprise to join the Made51 network. Since then, Indego Africa’s Economic Inclusion for Refugees program has created a pathway to self-reliance for over 300 refugee women in two of Rwanda’s largest refugee camps.

Our Promise

Local + Sustainable

Local is durable. We strive to be environmentally responsible in the production of all our products. We use a range of natural fibers indigenous to the countries where we work, sourcing our materials from local markets and farms. Materials that cannot be sourced locally are sourced consciously, prioritizing pan-African trade, quality and sustainability.

 Celebrating Craftsmanship

Craft Matters. Each of our products, from weaving to woodcarving, is handcrafted using time-honored, heritage techniques. We collaborate with our artisan partners to create products that celebrate their talent, share the beauty of traditional African artistry, and showcase our dedication to high-quality, modern design. Our artisan partners take pride in creating our handmade products, and their skill ensures the reliable quality of our brand.

 Transparent Partnerships

Our artisan partners work with us, not for us. We build long-term transparent partnerships, working collaboratively to determine fair pricing and ensure they have the resources to deliver beautiful and consciously crafted products to consumers around the world. Together, our partners make up 20+ primarily women-owned artisan businesses in Rwanda, Ghana, and Refugee Camps.

 Long-Term Impact

Our artisan partners have big dreams and big plans. We invest in their education because we believe in their ability to achieve (and exceed) their goals. We entrust our partners with the innovative designs, advanced skills training, and the market access needed to start careers and grow their own businesses. When women are financially and emotionally supported, they become powerful engines of growth for their families and communities.

About the Product

I remember very little about my childhood before leaving my home country. I arrived in the refugee camp when I was still young. Life in the camp teaches you very quickly that getting married here is not an easy decision. You carry painful memories from home, you leave behind everything you knew, and you are forced to learn how to survive in new and harsh living conditions.

Emotionally and physically, I was deeply burdened. I was young, vulnerable, and carrying wounds that could not be seen. Becoming a wife and later a mother was not a simple choice—it was a way to survive. Today, I am married and a mother of three children who do not even know our home country. They only know life in the camp.

Working with Indego Africa changed my life in ways I cannot fully describe. It was beyond words. Indego Africa restored hope in my life. We come together to weave, we laugh, we share stories, and at the end of the day we take something home to our families.

For me, weaving is more than work. It is a passion, a connection to my dignity, confidence, and joy. When I weave, I feel human again. I feel seen. I feel strong.

Since I began weaving, many things have changed. International support for refugees has reduced, and this has been a very painful reality to face. As a mother of three children, survival has become harder every day. Prices keep rising, needs keep growing, and opportunities keep shrinking. It is a bitter pill to swallow.

Yet, even in these difficult times, Indego Africa has remained a source of strength and gratitude in my life. Through this work, I am able to stand as a mother who tries her best, a woman who still believes in tomorrow, and a refugee who has not lost her dignity.

This is my testimony, shared between us women—a story of pain, resilience, and hope.
