Environmental sanitation / Migrations et Developpement

The objective of the project is to build 11 drinking water conveyance systems in isolated and underprivileged villages in the Anti-Atlas region of Morocco, to provide the local people with long-term access to quality drinking water.

Furthermore, the implementation of a sanitation system that respects the environment (collection and re-use of waste water) will be experimented in two pilot villages. The support of the Fondation Ensemble focuses precisely on this action.

Lastly, training will be provided on rational water management and intervention to strengthen community management capacities is also planned.
