Women Cooperative Shop

In Rubavu, women’s cooperatives play a vital role in community development, and a visit to one of their shops is both inspiring and rewarding. Guests are welcomed into a space where women display handmade crafts, including woven baskets, jewelry, clothing, and other locally produced items.

Beyond shopping for souvenirs, the experience provides insight into the stories of resilience and empowerment behind each product. Supporting these cooperatives directly contributes to the livelihood of local families and promotes sustainable tourism that uplifts the community.
