Children’s Summer Camp in Mellab Village – Morocco 2026

Organized by Heart of Atlas

A Meaningful Summer in Southeast Morocco

In the small Amazigh village of Mellab, children and volunteers come together every summer to share learning, creativity, culture, and human connection.

The Mellab Village Summer Camp 2026 is created for children who have limited access to summer activities and educational programs during school holidays. Our goal is to offer them a safe and joyful space where they can learn, play, express themselves, and create beautiful memories.

At the same time, volunteers discover the authentic culture of southeast Morocco through daily life in the village, cultural exchange, and time shared with local families.

About the Camp

Children participate in different activities every day, including:

• Art and painting workshops

• Sports and outdoor games

• Music, dance, and theater

• Fun educational and English activities

• Group activities that build confidence and friendships

• Inclusive activities adapted for all children, including children with disabilities

The camp atmosphere is simple, welcoming, and based on respect, sharing, and positive energy.
