Tariq Abla from the Netherlands
At the heart of the Dutch capital, Amsterdam, and far from the bustle of political and economic centers, a man moves in a wheelchair, but his presence exceeds material barriers, to draw the characteristics of an exceptional model for a Dutch Moroccan who chose to test as a starting point.
Ahmed al -Masri, a name that may not be frequent in Moroccan media, but its impact is present on the details of the daily life of dozens of people who have found in the alienation “the association of friendship” which he founded for decades, a human paradise, a platform for convergence, learning and salice.
Ahmed was born in Morocco and a young man immigrated to Europe in the 1970s, carrying a small pocket and in his heart many questions in the world, freedom and belonging. His first trip to the North was a personal adventure, similar to what young people fight when the homelands have shrunk them. However, the decisive turn of his career was not a migration, but rather the painful accident he suffered in the Netherlands, which caused him permanent disability.
However, Ahmed did not allow the circumstances to dictate his fate on him, because he rebuilt himself from the zero point, not as a victim, but as an actor.
The Assadaaka Community Association, which he founded in East Amsterdam, is more than a simple framework for social work, because it is an extension of Ahmed’s vision in real integration, based on dignity, and not on compassion and participation, and not to exclude, and since 1990, the association has been turned to a meeting for immigrants from several antecences, where they find linguistic support Social accompanied, cultural activities, without disc or laundry or justice.
In his humble offices, Ahmed receives old, young people and new immigrants, sitting with them, listening, suggesting and directing, then speaks of a retirement reality, and a personal experience in which he knows what the sense of unity, helplessness and alienation, therefore, each meeting with Ahmed Bears even beyond advice.
Despite his aging and his official retirement, he rarely leaves the headquarters of the association, as he finds in volunteer work, and insists that he is present in all the details of the activities he organizes, from solidarity meals distributed to those who do not find an entry to the means of subsistence or a room which protects them from the times of the Nersernes.
Because man realizes the importance of education, he weaves vast relationships with educational establishments in the Netherlands, to transform his association into a training space for students and volunteers, and makes “friendship” a school in community work.
Many young people who have been trained in the association occupy positions today in social protection organizations, wishing to transfer the philosophy of Ahmed to work … to be close to people, not an administrator for them.
Despite repeated offers to extend his experience to other Dutch cities, Ahmed preferred to stay in Amsterdam, in the neighborhood he kissed and kissed in turn. For him, size is not the norm, but depth. The important thing is to be influential where it is and that by making a difference in people’s lives, whatever the simple means.
It was at a time when there are a lot of discussions on immigration and the integration of the angle of fear or failure, where Ahmed Al -Masri represents the other side of this equation, a migrant who made himself a model, not only obstacles, and foundations of an impact, but in the country which believes in dignity and humanity is not measured by the effect of man.
