Morocco Water Museum

Morocco Water Museum

This week on World Ocean Radio we're exploring an extraordinary museum in Marrakesh, Morocco that celebrates the long history of the sustenance and management of water in the region, from the mountain ranges to the desert to the coastal plain, displaying the nature of water through systems of engineering, communal participation, spiritual dimension, and governance. It is the first such museum in Africa and is part of a UNESCO International Network of Water Museums that collectively document the hydraulic focus of societies, past and present. This episode is part two of a four-part series dedicated to Morocco and it's relationships to ocean and fresh water.


World Ocean Radio: 5-minute weekly insights in ocean science, advocacy, education, global ocean issues, marine science, policy, challenges, and solutions. Hosted by Peter Neill, Founder of W2O. Learn more at worldoceanobservatory.org
