- Youth and education
The Connections Of Hope for Cultural Exchange Association started in June 2009 by some prominent educators in Tiznit city as a response to the growing willingness among these to contribute to the improvement of the educational sector in the region by adding other dimensions of youth empowerment, cultural exchange and citizenship through non-formal education and projects for the youth of the region.
So far, the association has led two main events: one is a collaborative artistic afternoon for the youth to express how learning foreign languages can contribute to a more understanding. The second is called an epal exchange between some high school students and their peers in Boston. The first write Poems and the latter converts these into artistic work.
We are launching a promising program for the primary school kids who are going to benefit from a variety all along the week sessions in civic engagement projects, ICT, story-telling, music, theater, games...etc These are are expected to be led by university graduates seeking to enroll in the public service.
