Project Overview

The High-Atlas Mountains Irrigation Aqueduct project is a collaborative
endeavor between CorpsAfrica Maroc, Rotary San Carlos, CorpsAfrica HQ,
and Rotary Majorelle Marrakech, with a strong emphasis on community
involvement. CorpsAfrica volunteers integrated deeply with the local
communities, engaging in discussions and social activities to understand
their needs and perspectives. This project, driven by the community itself,
aims to enhance the residents quality of life by improving water
infrastructure, essential for their livelihoods, including almond and walnut
tree farming. Meetings, community engagement, and feedback were
integral to shaping the project. An action plan, with details for a Rotary
International Grant Application, emerged from these efforts. Regular
updates and feedback to Rotary San Carlos ensured transparent
communication. This project demonstrates the power of community-
driven initiatives and collaboration.
