Al-Haouz Moutainous Areas Rural Development Project
The overall objective of this six-year IFAD-initiated project is to contribute to the sustainable socio-economic development of the disadvantaged rural population of the mountain zones of Al-Haouz Province, identified as one of the poorest 14 provinces in the country. This will be achieved through the improvement and diversification of income sources, with an expected enhancement of living conditions and to the development of sustainable systems of natural-resource management. Specific objectives include:
- Strengthening the participatory capacity of the target-group grassroots organizations and their involvement in project implementation;
- Improving the productivity of agricultural and livestock production systems and the value of such products;
- Increasing and diversifying agricultural and non-agricultural income through income-generating activities that particularly benefit women and the young;
- Facilitating access of the poorest rural communities to basic socio-economic infrastructure; and
- Rehabilitating, protecting and rationally managing natural resources
