The Dominican Republic
Nitaino Culture
Marie Loise is a remarkable young artisan from Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, and a fashion design student. Despite the challenges of pursuing her passion in a country where sewing is often undervalued, she has founded Nitaino Culture, a project that not only supports her education but also embodies her dream of empowering women through creative work. She aspires to incorporate more women into this project, providing them with the opportunity to work in the field of sewing. Many women have had to set aside this dream and settle for jobs that they are not passionate about solely out of economic necessity. Nitaino Culture aims to change that reality by offering opportunities in a creative and rewarding environment.
