Essaouira Higher School of Technology

At the Essaouira Higher School of Technology, we work on research projects in the field of tourism, renewable energies and the environment. The School has led several projects, including the labeling files and the integration of the UNWTO Best tourism villages Network (Villages of: Sidi Kaouki and Mly Bouzerktoun). And the labeling of the village of Essaouira as a Creative Friendly Destination (Creative Tourism Network)...

The university also works to train and support artists and craftspeople in the creation of creative experiences. UCA positions itself to be able to provide assistance both in terms of capacity building and at the marketing level to advance in the achievement of the SDGs. Being able to raise awareness among players and encourage them to get involved in responding to societal challenges is one of our commitments. This is only possible through networks and the sharing of experiences. This is why South-South networking is another one of the objectives of our work.
