Project General Description
Given its geographical location, Morocco is highly vulnerable to hydro-climatic conditions. Water resources are relatively limited, variable over time and unevenly distributed across the country. Morocco’s economic and social development is generating a high demand for water, for the supply of drinking water to the population (urban and rural), industry, tourism, irrigation of agricultural land, and the improvement of water-related environmental parameters, particularly water quality. Over the past few years, Morocco has also felt the effects of climate change, which has taken it from a situation of water stress to one of water shortage, with per capita water supply curve is expected to fall to 500 m3/inhab./yr by 2030, compared to 2 560 m3/inhab./yr in the second half of the last century.
Project Objectives
The project's development objective is to improve the socio-economic and health living conditions of the population by reinforcing, securing and modernising drinking water supply systems in the urban and rural centres concerned. This will help to build resilience and adaptation to the impacts of climate change.
Beneficiaries
This component, which covers ONEE's digital transformation, comprises more than 30 digital initiatives/sub-projects and directly involves 8 central departments of ONEE-BO and some other regional directorates, whose management and operational staff will, at various levels, benefit from the results of the digital solutions and initiatives to be rolled out. The digitisation component will also benefit all customers and users, as well as internal and external collaborators. Component B: The project area covers several urban and rural areas (Asfalou, Bouhouda, Agourai). The total number of beneficiaries of component B by 2050 (the timeframe for designing the new works) is estimated at 486,000 inhabitants, broken down as follows: (i) about 275,000 inhabitants for Sub-component B2 (Bouhouda); (ii) 135,000 inhabitants for Sub-component B3 (Asfalou); and (iii) 76,000 inhabitants for Sub-component B4(Agourai). Component C: The beneficiaries, estimated at 4.55 million inhabitants (with 2.366 million women), are spread throughout the country. They will be precisely determined at the beginning of each year based on interventions to be decided by the Regional ONEE-BO Directorates. Component D: The beneficiaries of this component will mainly be ONEE-BO staff for the transfer of technology and capacity building to be provided by the two technical assistance missions for this component. Component E: The beneficiaries of this c
