Cooperation

There are many forms of travel, from most common historic cars, hotelier or knot up to the more adventurous travel backpacking, passing through rural tourism, camping, sports mini-trips or excursions to the montana or the desert. In addition to all these options, Marrakech offers another way, more human and supportive, of traveling: solidarity or cooperation travel to a developing country’s development that requires international collaboration to tackle its serious problems. Cooperation trips or philanthropic trips are intended to help people overcome their difficulties of survival and improve their everyday situation. The Moroccan economy, developing, depends on the income from tourism (about 7.5 million tourists in 207) which, however, not always revert to a substantial of the living conditions of the most disadvantaged improving crucially (those / ACE whose per capita income does not reach the national average of 1,673 euros a year). The United Nations promote tourism cooperation and emphasize the positive impact that this type of tourism has so much in the / traveller/a as in host communities. Education is one of the most important areas of cooperation between UNESCO and Morocco, where the figures are stark: 44.4 of population over 15 years old are illiterate, only 60 per cent of children entering nurseries and only 11% of the population reaches higher education (University u other). Given that public administrations efforts are insufficient, there are associations and private benefactors who are dedicated to helping youth get adequate schooling. Most of them offer scholarships, accommodation, free courses or assistance for their eventual entry into the labour market as well as the financing of educational material, transportation or even food. In addition to education, other hotbeds of implementation of assistance of private partners and associations exist whose aim is the improvement of the living conditions of the most vulnerable and needy. Fundamentally, there are two sectors which concentrates the efforts of these institutions: the health and infrastructure, which often are closely linked.
