AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoHuman Rights at the UN: NOVACT’s Mahfud Bechri told the UN Human Rights Council that Morocco’s information blockade, land grabs tied to “green energy,” and deadly drone strikes are meant to keep violations out of international view, while also warning that civic space is shrinking under fear and impunity. Violation Count: Researcher Hayat Said said a 2025 annual report documents nearly 170 human rights violations in occupied Western Sahara, stressing the real toll is likely far higher because independent monitoring is blocked. Sahrawi Refugee Life & Food: A fish farming project in Sahrawi camps near Tindouf is supplying fresh tilapia to thousands, cutting reliance on long trips for seafood in the desert. Migration Pressure in the Region: With Europe closed, migrants in Mauritania face a crackdown that has stalled departures toward Spain’s Canary Islands, leaving people stranded in Nouadhibou. Tourism Angle (Film Locations): A guide to where “The Odyssey” was filmed notes Morocco—around Aït Benhaddou near Ouarzazate—as one of the real-world backdrops used for the movie’s desert scenes. Land & Investment: Morocco’s state land agency says it approved 308 projects on about 32,000 hectares in 2025, with a big share tied to services, tourism, industry, and agro-industry in southern regions.
