khadamatfes.ma: connects citizens-in-need with social service providers in Fès

March 01, 2014
There is a surprisingly large number of both public and civil society –run social services available to help persons in need in the city of Fès. The challenge for many citizens is in finding out what these services are and how to reach them.  MTDS recently developed a web application that helps solve this problem. MTDS created an interactive database that allows users, which include both everyday citizens and social workers, to search for services by location, theme (ex. legal assistance,  health, and employment services) and  type of service. Khadamatfes.ma was launched in October 2012, by USAID Morocco through the SANAD Project.  The Moroccan association, Carrefour d'Initiatives de Communication, d'Information et de Documentation currently manages khadamatfes.ma and is ensuring that information about services is regularly updated
