I have discovered the Moroccan Foundation which is a charitable organisation devoted to helping the underpriveledged. One particular arm of it that I am interested in is for the small villages that are too far from anywhere to be able to register themselves as citizens. These are Moroccos forgotten people. They have no hospital or local office - nothing. Here is a link which gives a little more information: forgotten by the Moroccan state
It quite surprised me to watch this video but it has also inspired me to try and help. I have contacted the foundation and hope that they may be able to use me in some way to document these forgotten people photographically. By photographing them in B & W and in an artistically interesting way it is possible that their plight may be taken to a wider audience.
