– On September 8, 2023, a devastating earthquake struck Morocco, particularly affecting the regions of El Haouz, Chichaoua and Taroudant, causing massive destruction and affecting thousands of families. On September 12, the NGO distributed and installed solar kits in the affected douars, providing an initial essential source of energy.
In response to the scale of the needs identified in the most isolated areas, the Initiative Lumière pour le Maroc project was then designed to guarantee a sustainable response to the energy needs of disaster-stricken families, and was deployed in partnership with the Crisis and Support Center of the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs, the Caisse des Dépots et Consignations and in synergy with Morocco Future Energy Leader (MFEL).
