Asociacion Maya de Desarrollo is a worker cooperative of 180 women located in the highlands of Solola, Guatemala.  The co-op celebrated its 20th anniversary in 2008.

The Cooperative strengthens the economic position of these rural Mayan women, and creates a greater sense of well being and security based on improved earnings -- two to four times what the women would earn weaving for their local market.
