Government of Morocco Implements Comprehensive Support Program for Populations Impacted by Flooding in the North and West”

 


In application of the High Royal Instructions, the Moroccan government is rolling out a program to provide assistance and support to populations affected by flooding in the north and west of the Kingdom, caused by the exceptional rainfall in the country over the past two months.

In this regard, and in accordance with the High Royal Guidelines, the government has mobilized all concerned departments to ensure optimal implementation of this program, which has been developed on the basis of a careful assessment of the situation on the ground and the needs of affected populations, according to a press release from the office of the Head of Government.

As such, direct financial aid to victims of up to MAD 6,000 per family, financial aid of MAD 15,000 for the rehabilitation of affected homes and small businesses, as well as aid of MAD 140,000 for the reconstruction of homes that collapsed as a result of the floods will be granted, the same source notes.

Consequently, and with regard to the emergency financial aid intended for each affected family -to be distributed starting next week- the head of each affected family must send a text message to 1212 specifying their electronic national identity card (CNIE) number and date of birth, for relevant services to verify the family’s situation and process the application as swiftly as possible.

With regard to aid for the rehabilitation of affected homes and small businesses, as well as aid for the reconstruction of collapsed homes, the relevant commissions will conduct accurate surveys of premises in zones declared disaster areas.

If necessary, those affected can submit their requests to specialized commissions for examination in accordance with the regulatory measures in force, in a transparent and fair manner.

In the agricultural sector, support will be provided to affected farmers through the launch of a spring crop program adapted to the specificities of disaster-stricken regions, such as oilseed, cereals, and fodder crops, with support for the purchase of seeds and fertilizers to accelerate the season’s recovery, while continuing to support affected livestock farmers. 

The press release emphasizes that this program falls in line with the Royal High Care aimed at ensuring exemplary supervision and management of evacuation and displacement operations for affected populations, within a proactive approach to potential threat levels and mobilizing all logistical resources to ensure the displacement of populations from disaster areas under the best conditions and their return to their homes as soon as possible.
