inwi has taken a new step in its “Connected Classes Dir iddik” program by launching a national call for volunteers aimed at supporting the expansion of the project in rural primary schools. The stated objective is clear: to accelerate digital inclusion and increase the number of beneficiaries to over 30,000 additional students by the end of 2026, through the outfitting of more than 100 institutions across all 12 regions of the Kingdom.
Initiated by the Al Mada Foundation in partnership with inwi, Managem, Nareva, and Injaz Al Maghrib, and conducted in collaboration with the Ministry of National Education, Preschool, and Sports, the initiative aims to generalize access to digital tools in rural areas. Specifically, the program relies on the installation of multimedia rooms within primary schools, providing students with structured access to digital technologies.
Since its launch in 2021, “Connected Classes Dir iddik” has equipped over 110 schools and reached more than 34,000 students across the Kingdom. A new phase of expansion is underway starting this Ramadan, with the outfitting of 40 additional schools to reinforce the program’s impact and broaden its territorial scope.
Beyond infrastructure, the project includes structured educational support. In coordination with the Ministry of National Education and Injaz Al Maghrib, teachers receive specific training, particularly through the “Coding for All” program. This program aims to introduce them to coding, robotics, and the basics of artificial intelligence, so they can subsequently pass these skills on to students, especially those in the sixth year of primary school. Injaz Al Maghrib also contributes through modules dedicated to entrepreneurship, helping to cultivate initiative and transversal skills among beneficiaries.
In this new phase of deployment, inwi aims to strengthen civic engagement around the project. The national call for volunteers seeks to mobilize volunteers to support local associations in installing equipment, designing multimedia spaces, and conducting engaging and educational workshops. Volunteers will also have the opportunity to assist in the training sessions for students and participate in the educational dynamic created around the connected classes.
Through this mobilization, the “Dir iddik” program aims to place people at the heart of digital inclusion and bring together collaborators, partners, and citizens around concrete actions with significant social impact. By combining connectivity, equipment, and educational support, the initiative aspires to reduce the digital divide that persists in rural areas and enable students to acquire the essential skills needed to thrive in an increasingly digital environment.
Applications to join the program are open via the dedicated platform diriddik.ma.
