HIBAPRESS – Ahmed Al-Musaed
In a moment of national fulfillment for paths filled with giving, the associative activist Nouzha Bouabdallah, representative of the Oriental region, was crowned second nationally in the tenth session of the "Moroccan Women's Excellence Award."
This crowning, which comes under the high patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, and under the supervision of the Ministry of Solidarity, Social Inclusion and Family, is not just an honor for a person, but rather a recognition of a development vision that has succeeded in transforming charitable work from "transient charity" to "sustainable empowerment."
A path from the heart of suffering to leadership in change
Nouzha Bouabdallah, the daughter of the city of Aklim in the Berkane province, is a model of the Moroccan woman who made the geography of the "margin" a starting point for major national projects. Her journey began from the deep belief that the development of the rural world necessarily passes through the dignity of women and the integration of vulnerable groups.
Institutions of Impact: From Education to Inclusion
Bouabdallah's path was not theoretical, but was embodied in concrete field projects that made a difference in the lives of hundreds, most notably:
Combating school dropouts: by managing the "Dar Al-Taliba" in Aklim, which houses 41 girls from vulnerable groups, providing them with an educational and psychological environment that ensures their continued academic achievement.
Caring for people with special needs: the pivotal contribution to the establishment of the "Al-Amal Center for Children with Disabilities" in the rural world, a qualitative project that breaks the isolation of this group and qualifies them educationally and socially.
Economic and social empowerment: through projects to provide decent housing for widows and orphans, and supporting women in creating cooperatives and income-generating activities, thus ensuring their financial independence.
Combining the field and academia
What distinguishes Nouzha Bouabdallah's experience is "scientific professionalism"; she was not satisfied with field experience, but rather reinforced it with a solid academic path. Her obtaining a master's degree in human rights and public policies, and completing her research in a master's degree in social work professions and digital transformation at Mohammed I University in Oujda, reflects an awareness of the necessity of "digitizing" and modernizing social interventions to keep pace with the challenges of the age. "This crowning is an honor for every rural woman who believes that change begins with silent work close to the people."
Bouabdallah's victory in second place nationally represents a strong message about the vitality of civil society in the Oriental region. It also confirms that the standards of excellence in modern Morocco are now measured by the extent of sustainability and the field impact of initiatives.
