Rehousing aid for Moroccan earthquake victims

Our Rehousin access assistance focuses on repairing infrastructure damaged by the September earthquake in the Al Haouz region and temporarily rehousing disaster victims in safe conditions. The primary goal of this phase is to guarantee solid, safe shelters while rehabilitating essential infrastructure, including water, electricity, and sanitation networks.

Activities Carried Out:

• Water Connections: Repair teams restored water pipes in several affected villages, ensuring an adequate water supply for affected families.
• Electrification: Sustained efforts were made to restore electricity to the affected areas, enabling families to regain access to essential services.
• Installation of Septic Tanks: Septic tanks were installed to ensure adequate sanitary conditions in temporary relocation areas, reducing health risks.
• Relocation of Disaster Victims: Families were relocated to secure temporary shelters while waiting for the reconstruction of their damaged homes.

Results Achieved:

• 173 Families have been rehoused in 173 temporary housing units, ensuring safe shelter for each affected family.
• 40 Sanitation Units were installed, significantly improving hygiene and sanitation conditions in the temporary rehousing areas.

Recalled Objectives:

• Repair 6,014 homes for 6,014 families.
• Rehabilitate infrastructure in 117 affected villages.
• Install 850 sanitation units to ensure adequate sanitation conditions.

Next Objectives:

• Finalize infrastructure repairs in the remaining villages.
• Accelerate the rehousing process for families still affected.

The JoodVILLAGES project is progressing with determination in its mission to repair infrastructure and rehouse disaster victims. Our ongoing efforts aim to rebuild resilient communities and promote sustainable development in the regions affected by the earthquake. The upcoming period will focus on the final reconstruction of permanent homes.
