Kuruluş Hakkında
LOOKING FOR A STRONG MOROCCAN PARTNER FOR YOUR NEXT ERASMUS+ PROJECT? If your project needs more than a logo from Morocco on the partner list, AEFDS is ready to contribute. The Association of Education, Training and Social Development (AEFDS) is a Moroccan civil society organisation based in Northern Morocco, working at the intersection of education, youth, skills development, social inclusion, sustainability and community development. We are currently open to joining well-designed Erasmus+ KA2, Cooperation Partnership and Capacity-Building projects where partners are expected to contribute actively, not simply participate. WHY WORK WITH AEFDS? Because a successful international project does not end when the proposal is approved. It needs a partner who can understand the local reality, mobilise people, implement activities, test solutions, engage stakeholders, collect feedback, communicate results and help turn European project ideas into meaningful local impact. This is where we aim to bring value. 🇲🇦 OUR VALUE AS A SOUTHERN MEDITERRANEAN PARTNER AEFDS can contribute to a project through: • Local needs assessment and contextualisation • Access to young people and diverse target groups • Participant mobilisation and community outreach • Workshops, training and non-formal education • Piloting and testing project methodologies and tools • Stakeholder and institutional engagement • Dissemination and communication at local and regional level • Adaptation and transfer of European practices to the Moroccan context • Feedback from the Southern Mediterranean perspective • Contribution to project development, implementation and sustainability Our objective is simple: Not to be “the Moroccan partner”. To be a partner that makes the project stronger.

It is about preparing people and organisations to work intelligently with technology while preserving human judgement, responsibility, empathy and meaning.
