Thousands of children and young people had their education disrupted when a powerful earthquake struck Morocco in September 2023. Schools in the High Atlas Mountains were hardest hit with many completely destroyed. Reconstruction efforts are now underway and this project is helping to support the rebuilding of two schools and fund equipment and materials to improve the quality of education for pupils learning in temporary classrooms.
Schools in the High Atlas Mountains suffered significant damage after the devastating earthquake which measured a magnitude of 6.8. Following structural assessments, the rebuilding of schools in the region may take two or more years. This will have a lasting impact on the education of young people in Berber Amazigh communities.
This project focuses on the two large primary and secondary schools located in Asni and pupils from these schools. EBF is involved in the rebuild to help improve and enhance facilities and provide school equipment. We will also continue to support students who are currently learning in temporary classrooms. Our aim is to provide the resources necessary to create a welcoming and safe environment for teaching, learning and play.
We believe that children and young people everywhere deserve the best education. Our involvement in the project will help to improve and enhance Asni's schools provision post-disaster and ensure that more than 2,000 pupils have access to a stimulating, varied and quality education. With your support, we can provide this together.
