About FehiFathi

FehiFathi comprises of the two dhivehi words, Fehi meaning Green and Fathi meaning Stitch.

The project aims to reduce the amount of fabric waste that ends up in landfill by rescuing clothes that can be used secondhand. Up-cycling the clothes and fabric that is destined for landfill into reusable products.

The initiative is also focused on women empowerment and works exclusively with seamstresses throughout the Maldives and interested women’s development committees within the islands.

It is an initiative by Zero Waste Maldives, Dreamers Maldives and Preloved.mv.

How the Project Works

The project collects used clothes and fabric. We assess the used clothes to see if they can still be used as second hand clothes and divert them to be reused. The ones that do not make the cut get up cycled into other reusable products. Such as Tote bags, Cushion covers, Bean bag covers and other fabric based items. 

We follow the Zero Waste hierarchy of 7Rs Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Re purpose, Recover and Recycle to determine how we deal with the fabrics that we receive.
