Training-Action Workshop for Inclusive Institutional Communication

Highlights from the training-action workshop in which representatives from 13 communes in the Béni Mellal-Khénifra region took part, including elected women and men and members of equality and gender approach bodies.

The workshop focused on strengthening knowledge and skills and opened a debate on best practices for reinforcing inclusive institutional communication within territorial communities, as well as on mobilizing communes’ own resources to build a constructive discourse in support of inclusive territorial initiatives and policies.

AMSSAWASS Project: Strengthening the Political Representation of Elected Women

The AMSSAWASS project (equality in Tamazight) aims to address the challenges arising from structural and social barriers that hinder women’s effective participation in local decision-making. It focuses on strengthening the political representation of elected women and developing their capacities in the Béni Mellal-Khénifra region, enabling them to assume leadership roles within communes.

Partnership and Funding

This project is the result of a partnership between AIDECA and the “Ajyale Égalité” programme, funded by the French Development Agency (AFD) and the French Embassy in Morocco. The programme aims to promote equality between women and men in Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria and Libya, and is implemented by Expertise France in collaboration with committed local actors.
