Rebuilding Lives: Challenges and Delays in Morocco's Earthquake Recovery

Survivors of the devastating earthquake in Morocco's Atlas Mountains are struggling to rebuild their lives and homes, as decimated communities lack the resources to provide support. Many people have lost their homes and vital support networks, leaving them without shelter and surviving in makeshift tents. While there is enough food and water, waste management is becoming a problem. The Moroccan government has announced financial assistance for those whose homes were destroyed, but the psychological impact of the earthquake is also taking a toll on survivors. The rebuilding process is expected to be long and challenging, with the need for psychological support recognized as crucial.
