2019 : YTT DEI (Diversity, Equity & inclusion) Education Program.
Impact:
50 students participated in the program.
4 Schools: 1. Cadi Ayyad University, Marrakech. 2. OFPPT Vocational Career Centers, Casablanca. 3. OFPPT Vocational Career Centers, Tangier. 4. Abdelmalek Essaadi University, Tangier.
Our DEI Education Program, in collaboration with USAID and the Moroccan Ministry of Education, played a pivotal role in a summer program designed specifically for underprivileged young individuals. This program was instrumental in cultivating an atmosphere of acceptance and support for youth from various backgrounds and with differing abilities. By engaging in this program, participants experienced a marked enhancement in their comprehension of inclusivity, equipping them with the necessary skills to effectively tackle the multifaceted needs associated with fostering a more inclusive society. The program succeeded in nurturing a deep sense of belonging and teamwork among the participants. Their shared experiences and collaborative spirit laid the groundwork for a vibrant community where diversity is celebrated, and everyone’s voice is valued.

2018: YTT Art-Therapy Mental Healthcare Program
Impact:
45 children, along with 25 women participated in our workshops.
Refugee Centre: 1. Collectif des Communautés Subsaharienne au Maroc (CCSM), Rabat.
Our Art-Therapy Mental Healthcare Support program, employed art therapy techniques to help participants, mainly from North and Central Africa, manage anxiety and depression, fostering emotional resilience and overall well-being. Focusing on refugees and asylum seekers who faced unique challenges and traumas, the program empowered these individuals to express themselves creatively, allowing them to process their experiences and emotions effectively. Aligned with the YTT Learning Approach, the program utilised evidence-based practices and adapted the interventions to meet the specific needs of each participant. This holistic approach, also promoted a greater sense of community and connection amongst the participants.
