As part of the national volunteering program “Motatawi3,” initiated by the Ministry of Youth, Culture, and Communication, targeting individuals aged 18 to 22 to empower them for a positive impact on their environment and skill development across various fields, a coaching and orientation workshop took place at Guelmim’s reception center on July 27, 2023. This workshop, jointly conducted by the Regional Youth Executive of Guelmim and the regional delegation of the Office of Cooperation Development (ODCO) in Guelmim, aimed to guide young volunteers, bringing them closer to cooperatives and facilitating their integration into these organizations.

During his address, the regional delegate of the ODCO provided a brief overview of the cooperative sector in the Guelmim Oud Noun region and highlighted the characteristics and specificities of cooperative enterprises. Before concluding, the delegate encouraged volunteers to select the type of cooperatives and the territory that best suited them. He urged them to propose their contributions to the host cooperatives, aiming to match their expectations with the cooperatives that align with their goals.

Following the specialized training period, all volunteers received assistance in joining the cooperatives where they will actively engage in voluntary actions.
