Educational and solidarity projects

The IMAD association for youth and peace organizes educational sites and trips that are considered as an opportunity for certain youth in difficulties of (re)discovering the meaning of caring, of dialogue and collaboration. It works the same way with single ladies or with ladies weakened by terrorism. For the projects with the teens, the adults supervise the participants with benevolence and firmness. They encourage them not to “unhook” and to take their role among the society where they feel excluded. This is made by constant reminder of the Republican values, witch some of the youth don’t recognize; this is where they watch out from dangers such as identity fall. Because she is aware of the growing inequalities, from this gap that is being dug in the difficult neighbourhoods and the rest urban areas and peri-urban areas, threatening to tear apart the social fabric, Latifa Ibn Ziaten estimates that each one of us should face questions that we prefer sometimes to avoid, redefine her landmarks and attempt to defuse the tensions that weaken our society. Every one of us knows these tensions. The French society is in constant evolution, but France should remain it-self: a country whose logo shows a spirit of openness and tolerance that it must preserve. All the children of France, no matter what their history is, no matter of their origins, no matter of their beliefs, are the daughters and sons of the Republic. And They must be recognized as such. it is in our hands to live the equality of chances that will give back the vitality to our national cohesion. Among the association, Latifa Ibn Ziaten would like that at the end of each experience, the youth could keep on sharing the values of living together and to understand the meaning of respecting the human soul, beyond the differences. All the presented projects here express what the association IMAD wants to be: a group of actions led by the benefit of the youth, but also by weakened ladies by terrorism and on a wider aspect, families. It is also a power to serve peace.

Together with Imad

They worked on the verification of the book’s content and on the classification, then made them visible on the shelves. They worked on equipping every book in a testifying label of a taken action and of the taken role, this year with Ferdinand Buisson high school and the association Imad in setting up this project. Under the aegis of their supervisors, the youth were responsible for library transferring in order to be operational as soon as we leave. They did a real, thorough, technic, librarian job, allowing thereafter an optimal usage of the new equipment. this year the association IMAD wished to innovate to organize cultural and artistic activities on a large scale. The idea was to associate the youth of M’adiq and its region to a realization of a fresco that would decorate a facade or courtyard of partner schools, this realization would create a feeling of collective pride, associated with the benefits of cultural and social action.

"Digital House" at the Mulhouse Women's Prison

This project concerns women in prison in Mulhouse. The goal of the digital house is to fight against the exclusion of women, by offering them training to facilitate access to work, Because it gives them the means to achieve financial independence, such a measure can only promote their reintegration at the end of their sentence. It also helps to consolidate or restore confidence and self-esteem among these women, who often lack diplomas, while developing skills in the use of digital tools. As education and vocational training progresses, the spectre of radicalisation declines.

United Women for the Future, 2nd part

This project gathered a delegation of French women from different faiths and cultures, housewife, business leaders, elected officials, community or political activists, lawyers or teachers, representing several French regions. From Marrakech to M'diq via Tangier, they spent ten days exploring the action of Moroccan women as close as possible to the citizens. in the fields of associations, economics and politics, as well as the arts. Stylist, model, politician, singer, we met Moroccan women who are making a name for themselves. These committed and courageous women work in often very difficult fields. Challenging the rules, they free the voice of the oppressed, of those who are forgotten in society; they support the economic development of many project leaders.

United women for the future

This project was offered to Moroccan women who live in morocco, affected by terrorism who have lost a spouse, child or relative. During their trip to Paris, they discovered French cultural heritage and met other women who are victims of terrorist attacks, with whom they were able to exchange views on this subject. In contact with each other, having had similar life histories, they were able to move beyond their status as victims to consider their future turned towards new interests.
