In a non-descript low-rise building a young woman, who only wishes to be known as Murighul, smiles as she heads to her workstation in a small clothing factory.
Murighul is disabled from the waist down. She is a seamstress at Dorcas Design, a social enterprise that provides job opportunities for physically and economically disadvantaged women in China who have skills in clothing manufacturing.
A native of Kashgar in the northwestern province of Xinjiang, Murighul now lives in Guangzhou where Dorcas Design is based. Today, the 25-year-old is working on a cloth trimming order for Dialog Worldbutik, a Hong Kong-based fair trade fashion label.
