We were delighted to welcome Ms. Nadia Talbi from the U.S.-Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) and Mrs. Charlotte Denise-Adam from the OECD to our office yesterday! Our meeting was a wonderful opportunity to discuss SimSim-Participation Citoyenne's impactful work and ongoing projects. 🤝

In partnership with MEPI, Hight Atlas Foundation (HAF) convened a roundtable with 25 representatives from local CSOs, women cooperatives, and public institutions, to discuss the achievements and challenges of the new community initiatives launched by the local grant’s program beneficiaries in Dakhla-Laayoune Region. The program supported five community-based initiatives addressing local governance of different socioeconomic priorities such as the education system, environment and cultural issues, unemployment and healthcare services.

Food can build bridges, create connections, and deepen relationships. This TL student shared his experience on the food in his host community.

“As for Panda Express, I do enjoy it! It serves great Chinese food, and I love that it's open late, so it's a convenient option when you're craving something delicious after hours. In general, I like the food in the U.S.—there's such a variety. You can find food from different world cuisines, so there are plenty of options to choose from depending on what you're in the mood for!”

Former TLSA students, what was your favorite meal in the U.S.?
