Hawa Sangaré

Hawa Sangaré will carry the Olympic Torch. This is her story:

Hawa embodies a vision of a more caring, inclusive and sustainable society through her association, deeply rooted in the circular economy. By cultivating a collective spirit within their association, its members are promoting French know-how through their sewing activities. Their fight against clothing waste by recovering fabrics and unsold new items to create new products is a significant contribution to the planet.

Through their actions, they help to create jobs, primarily for women in difficulty, who receive training in their workshops and finally achieve independence. Hawa has made a strong commitment and her inspiring initiatives may encourage other women to get involved in the circular economy. Their creativity in the fashion sector is a proud embodiment of French excellence, providing a shining showcase for Gallic innovation and sustainability.
