An irrigation project led by IFC has brought water and hope to thousands of citrus farmers in the region of Guerdane, Morocco. The public-private partnership has created jobs, improved residents’ incomes, and led to a training program for future farmers.
Really nice IFC clip about the importance of water, and proper irrigation in fostering development. In this case, an IFC project has reinvigorated citrus farming in the Guerdane region of Morocco, and had a positive multiplier effect, enhancing development too.
