For a committed voluntary work

Chantiers jeunesse Maroc (CJM)

I - A brief historical view

The voluntary service started in Morocco with a great historical project "the Road of Unity" 12000 young volunteers had to build a road which linked the central zone which was under the Frensh domination to the north of the country which was dominated by the Spanish.

This project took place the year Morocco got independent, that is in 1956. In 1961 a group of volunteers from "the Road of Unity" together with another group of youth which had some experience in voluntary service through their participation in international workcamps in Europe undertook the creation of a national structure dealing with voluntary service.

"Chantiers Jeunesse Maroc" was born and can be considered as a continuation of the spirit of the "Road of Unity" "Chantiers Jeunesse Maroc", since it was born participed in different important national projects such as "DERRO" (Economical and rural development of the occidental Rif) (1968-1969) , Haouz , a project in which young farmers where taught new agricultural techniques preparing for the change in the regime follarving the introduction of irragation , the school canteen operation , building of schools , canteen in rural primary schools and different campaigns against illeteracy.
