OUR PROGRAMMES

Medication treatments, surgical procedures

MEDICAL CARE

Access to medical care is determined by a wide range of diverse factors. Income and education levels are currently key determinants in a country like Morocco.

Whether it involves basic medical treatments or complex surgical procedures, patients are often excluded from the healthcare system for financial reasons.

Hygiene, nutrition, eye and dental care, vaccination

HEALTH AT SCHOOL

Today’s advances in medicine suggest that contagious diseases can be effectively controlled; however, hygiene is still too often overlooked. Beyond the role of the family—which plays a primary part in hygiene education—schools provide a foundational environment where good practices can be taught, reinforced, and improved.

Access to healthcare facilities and access to medicine

RURAL AREAS

Despite efforts by public authorities to standardize access to healthcare, there are still glaring inequalities between urban and rural areas, and between so-called “poor” and “rich” regions. These disparities are evident both in population health indicators and in access to care and public service coverage.

Environmental protection, waste and water management

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

A protected environment is key to better health. Alongside economic growth and social equity, environmental protection is a pillar of sustainable development. It ensures a better long-term balance and improved health. Poor treatment of the natural environment, along with mismanagement of waste and water, are all contributing factors that eventually lead to health problems.
