S-milestones Morocco
Associazione Basilicata Link APS
Tetouan, Morocco
Description
S-Milestones is a Volunteering Team project coordinated by Basilicata Link (Italy) and hosted by Espace Citoyenneté pour le Développement Humain (Citizenship Space for Human Development - ECDH) in Tetouan (Morocco). The project aims to explore the connection between people, culture, and environment through photography. Volunteers will capture moments that combine human expression—especially smiles—with elements of architecture, history, and daily life, highlighting the unique identity of Tetouan. Beyond photography, the project encourages intercultural exchange, creativity, and collaboration among young people from different backgrounds, creating a shared experience that blends art, culture, and human connection. A second step of the project (S-milestones Matera) is foreseen in the second half of June 2026 in Matera, Italy.
