Morocco

The potable water supply component of the program will be focused in El Haouz Province (South of Marrakech), home to 14% of the national rural population (Marrakech-Tensift region). For the small-scale agriculture component of the program the Doukkala-Abda Region will be targeted (South of Casablanca). These agricultural zones are under stress from water resource scarcity and competition for limited resources by multiple users.

• Increase access to improved potable water supply sources, and improve hygiene practices and local governance of water for vulnerable rural populations
• Improve water use practices by small farmers in intensive agricultural production areas to enhance livelihoods and ensure environmental sustainability
