MedCities launched the project EMPLOIMed, financed by the Catalan Agency for Cooperation to the Development, which aims to establish a support service for employability and entrepreneurship in M’Saken and Chefchaouen, offering spaces for co-working, information, training opportunities and support for young people.

In October, a first meeting with the municipalities’ team of M’Saken and Chefchaoen was organised online in order to start planning the project activities in accordance to their needs.

The overall objective is to strengthen the role and capacities of the local governments as actors of economic development in supporting its youth population’s employability and promoting entrepreneurship.

The main activities of the project are:
