Skoura Community Service
Hello from the South of Morocco,
The students just completed rural development commuity service in Skoura. We worked with two community associations, and a Naturalist from the Museum of Natural History (Marrakesh) /Vice President for the Assocation des Jeunes Marocains pour le Développement et la Culture.
The Naturalist/ Vice President and emloyees from Agricultural du Sud and Couer de Palmier introduced students to local agricultural development (including current economic and environmental issues in the area) during a morning/afternoon lecture.
Students helped do some construction and maintenance work on an au bergerie for a local family with guidance from 2 community associations. The Naturalist also showed students an excavation site for dinosaurs in the area. I will post a slide show of the community service project in Fes.
Tomrrow we will be heading to the Todra Gorge. Stay tuned or more updates.
