Embassy staff attended this week’s SIAM international agricultural fair in Meknes. One of the groups participating in the fair is Association ASSID pour le Développement Durable (ASSID) with funds from a local grant from the MEPI program, which is funded by the U.S. government. The program works with rural women from cooperatives in the Middle Atlas and Rif regions, who specialize in the cultivation and exploitation of medicinal and aromatic plants, to produce soaps, creams, scented water, etc. ASSID provides training to these women on the best ways to market their products, selling them to hotels and other luxury markets and on a website.
