Ted Talk: How I Brought a River and My City Back to Life
Published by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Non Profit
TED Fellow Aziza Chaouni recounts her 20 year- effort to restore this river to its former glory, and to transform her city in the process.
The Fez River winds through the medina of Fez, Morocco - a mazelike medieval city that’s a World Heritage site. Once considered the “soul” of this celebrated city, the river succumbed to sewage and pollution, and in the 1950s was covered over bit by bit until nothing remained.
