To ensure the success and sustainability of our projects, there’s nothing like an on-site identification mission to assess needs, gather as much data as possible and meet the beneficiaries and local associations who can help set up these projects.
With this in mind, our volunteers Aziz S. and Kadja D. travelled to southern Morocco, between Taroudant and El Haouz. In this region still badly affected by the earthquakes of 2023, (re)providing access to energy and water will be envisaged through solar installations and pumps, notably :
– in Adebdi, a village of 200 inhabitants, almost half of whom still live in tents in precarious conditions.
– Tajgelt and Ait Bourd, in the Taroudant region, villages supported by the Amal Biladi association, which focuses on agro-ecology, rebuilding traditional mud houses and eco-tourism.
– in Tilmzdigh, where the young people’s association is seeking sustainable solutions to combat the impact of climate change and drought, as well as the rural exodus.
Back from her first mission, Katia D. writes:
“A life-changing mission! I’ve just returned from my first field mission with Energy Assistance, and I can only describe it as a deeply enriching and rewarding experience
🌍 Working with isolated communities in mountainous regions of Morocco was a real lesson in humility and solidarity.
During this mission, we visited and evaluated three very different projects, but all linked by the same objective: to improve the living conditions of populations in great difficulty. …
💡 Each project reminded us just how much access to water and energy can transform a community.
I’m proud to have contributed, in my own small way, to these initiatives. This mission allowed me to discover concrete challenges, but also to see the direct impact of our actions. It’s an experience I’d recommend to anyone wanting to get involved in humanitarian projects.
Thank you to Energy Assistance and all our local partners for their welcome and commitment! Together, we have the power to make a difference. 🌟 ”
